There is finally some hope for crowding beyond Kalyan station, as the railways has begun work on the in-demand expansion on the third and fourth lines between Kalyan and Badlapur on Central Railway. While the railways has awarded tenders for construction works, the state government has initiated the process to acquire the required land for it.
The Mumbai Railway Vikas Corporation (MRVC) has awarded tenders for construction of bridges, approaches and other roads along with ancillary works. The total land required for the project is 13.62 hectares, including 10.45 hectares of private land and 3.16 hectares of government land.
