Mumbai's Western Railway has entered the execution phase for the long-awaited Vasai Road Railway Terminus project, with key contracts awarded and construction work underway. The ₹150.25-crore initiative, slated for March 2028 completion, will be built entirely on existing railway land, avoiding the need for land acquisition. Key contracts have been awarded in phases, covering civil, track, electrical, signalling, and traction works.
As of September, the platform wall construction has progressed to 500 metres (41.6%), while drainage and yard dismantling works have covered 70 metres (5.8%). The project, initially sanctioned in March 2025, will accommodate 12 trains and handle about 1.8 route km and 5.1 track km over 4.5 hectares. The terminus is expected to alleviate pressure on existing suburban infrastructure in the rapidly expanding Vasai-Virar and Palghar regions.
