The Central Railway has undertaken the construction work for the new suburban railway corridor between Belapur and Uran railway stations at an investment of ₹1,782 crore. The mega rail project is being undertaken at a cost-sharing basis, of which 66% is borne by the City and Industrial Development Corporation (CIDCO) and 33% by CR. The construction activities have been undertaken between Kharkopar and Uran railway stations with the scope of work of upgrading the platforms at the new Rajanpada railway station, along with foundation and sub-structure work of Nhava-Sheva, Dronagiri and Uran stations. The construction work of a subway at Uran and the foundation work of two bridges were also undertaken during the lockdown. CR has completed several infrastructure projects, including the work for speeding up the construction of the remaining 14.60-km Kharkopar and Uran railway lines of the 27 km Belapur -Seawoods and Uran project. Shivaji Sutar, chief public relations officer informed that the project will cut the distance between Mumbai and Uran by 50%. The construction for the Mumbai's fourth suburban railway corridor between Belapur and Uran railway stations received the nod in 1967 and the first phase of the corridor opened between Belapur and Kharkopar (12.5km) station in November 2018 and as of now, 40 local trains operate on the Belapur-Kharkopar railway route every day.
