This project is being worked on in different phases. The railway is planning to conclude the work by 2027. Once this project concludes, separate corridors for long-distance and local trains will be available. As of now, these trains run on the same corridor. Hence, if any long-distance train reaches Kasara during the rush hour it will be regulated in this new section to clear the rush of local trains. The rush causes delay. After completion of the 3rd and 4th lines, this problem between Kalyan and Kasara will be solved.
