THE EXISTING trans-harbour railway line that runs between Thane and Panvel will have a new station, Digha, which will be a part of this route in January 2023. The new station will come after Airoli and will also be a part of the proposed Airoli-Kalwa elevated suburban corridor on the Central Railway line.
An official of Mumbai Rail Vikas Corporation (MRVC), which is implementing the Airoli-Kalwa suburban corridor and has also constructed the Digha station, told The Indian Express that the station is almost ready and only work of platform shelter, subway, bridge, drainage construction are in the last stages which should be completed by December this year. From January, the trans harbour line trains will also halt at Digha, said the official.
