The nodal agency is leaving around 14 m in the middle of the two corridors for train connectivity along the 1.2 km airport corridor. The train connect is likely to be taken up by MIAL— a 74% stakeholder in the SPV, Navi Mumbai International Airport Limited. The stretch will also connect flyers and commuters from the upcoming Targhar railway station on the Nerul-Uran rail corridor by the proposed sky train or mono rail. The Targhar station will have a Metro station on pillars for the proposed fast tracked CST elevated Metro corridor and the sky train will act as a last-mile connectivity for flyers using the Metro or suburban trains.
