Mumbai-Hyderabad bullet train to link Navi Mumbai airport

The terminal for the Mumbai-Hyderabad bullet train corridor, which is to come up in Navi Mumbai, will integrate with the under-construction international airport, Mumbai Trans Harbour Link project and Navi Mumbai Metro. The average speed of the proposed bullet train is estimated to be 320-km per hour. The 711- km distance between Hyderabad and Mumbai can be traversed in less than three-and-a-half hours as the distance takes over 15 hours by existing trains that run at speeds between 80 km per hour and 120 km per hour, with many stops in between the two cities. A fast train between Mumbai and Hyderabad is Hussain Sagar Express that takes under 14 hours. This will be the third high-speed rail project involving Mumbai. Currently, National High-Speed Rail Corporation (NHSRC) is tasked with the 508-km Mumbai-Ahmedabad High-Speed Rail Link project. The other Mumbai project is the proposed 753-km Mumbai-Nashik-Nagpur corridor. NHSRC has proposed six corridors spanning 4,109 km, the remaining being Chennai-Bengaluru-Mysuru (435 km), Delhi-Varanasi (865), Delhi-Ahmedabad (886 km) and Delhi-Amritsar (459 km).
