Breakthrough achieved of longest tunnel on Panvel-Karjat suburban rail line: MRVC

By Economic Times - 3 months ago
The Mumbai Railway Vikas Corporation achieved a breakthrough in the construction of the Panvel-Karjat suburban railway line by successfully completing the longest tunnel, the 2,265-meter-long Wavarle tunnel. Excavation for this tunnel began last year and was completed using the New Austrian Tunnelling Method. The tunnel will feature advanced safety and ventilation systems, making it the first ballastless track in the Mumbai suburban network. Despite challenges like fractured rock masses and water seepage, the project maintained a high excavation rate. This achievement marks a significant milestone in improving connectivity and transportation efficiency in the Mumbai suburban region.
