L&T starts concrete pouring works on MAHSR project
To complete the Mumbai - Ahmedabad High Speed Rail (MAHSR Bullet Train) project, Larsen & Toubro has started pouring concrete for the first pier of the 508.17-km Mumbai –line linking the two cities through 12 stations in Maharashtra and Gujarat. This landmark was achieved in Gujarat's Valsad district about three months after workers began pouring concrete for the first pier's open base (pile cap). Recently, shuttering panels arrived on-site to help with casting jobs as this pier (P-13), situated at chainage KM 205+500 on the line's 237.1 km Package C4, is one of only two of eight civil packages awarded for the main construction line's so far. It runs elevated from Zaroli Village on the Maharashtra-Gujarat border to Vadodara via four stations at Vapi, Bilimora, Surat, and Bharuch, accounting for 46.66 percent of the main-line and making it the longest of them all. As a reminder, the majority of the line (468 / 508 km) will be elevated, with contractors such as L&T planning to construct it using the full span launching system as it fine-tuned the line's alignment within Gujarat in the recent past to follow its exact alignment. Now it will see site clearing for large stretches of land between Ahmedabad and Vadodara. In reality, at Bodka village, south of Vadodara, three mega projects are visible within 2 km of each other including west to east, the DME (Delhi-Mumbai Expressway) and the Mumbai-Ahmedabad Bullet Train (MAHSR) and Western Dedicated Freight Corridor (WDFC).
