Maharashtra Government has approved the Pune-Nashik semi-high-speed rail corridor project. It aims to bring down travel time between the two cities from the current six hours to one hour and forty-five minutes. The project will boost passenger and freight movement while making the Mumbai-Pune-Nashik, the golden triangle, an economic hub. Apart from this, the state has also planned to include a 540km marine highway as an alternative to the Mumbai-Goa highway, and e-vehicle charging stations on highways going out of Mumbai. The proposed length of the Pune-Nashik corridor is 235-km and twenty-four stations have been proposed on the route. The speed of the train will be 200-km per hour and will involve an investment of ₹16,039 crore. The deputy CM and FM Ajit Pawar informed that the allocation for the marine highway is ₹9,573 crore and Maharashtra Rail Infrastructure Development Corporation (MRIDC) will execute the project. The state agencies have started the process of acquiring 1,470 hectares of land for the project.
