Advanced rail terminus, coaching complex progress rapidly bringing convenient travel options and reducing congestion

Apart from the Panvel-Kalamboli rail coach complex, Panvel is also undergoing a mega transformation
Work on the fresh rail terminus of the Panvel-Kalamboli coaching complex, which will be the first one to cater to Navi Mumbai and act as a buffer for Mumbai`s growing train traffic, is already 61% complete. The project includes the construction of a terminus at Panvel and a coaching complex facility at Kalamboli, featuring longer 26-coach platforms, maintenance pits, two new lines, additional platforms, new foot overbridges, and an underpass for easy connectivity.
To ensure smooth operations, the Panvel terminus and the Kalamboli coaching complex will be linked with a separate line, with necessary connectivity on both sides to avoid any infringement with existing operational traffic.
Once completed, Panvel will become the first rail terminus in the vicinity of Navi Mumbai, allowing commuters from the area to board several outstation trains at Panvel itself without having to travel to the Lokmanya Tilak Terminus (LTT), the Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus (CST), Dadar, or other city stations.
