The construction of the Kalyan-Dombivli-Taloja Metro 12 route of the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) connecting Thane and Navi Mumbai will finally begin on March 3. The work will be inaugurated by Chief Minister Eknath Shinde in a ceremony at the Premier Maidan in Dombivli.
One of the important projects in the 337 km metro project of MMRDA is the 'Metro 12' project. This route is 20.75 km long Kalyan-Taloja and includes 19 metro stations on this route. These metro stations include Kalyan, APMC Kalyan, Ganesh Nagar, Pisavali Gaon, Golavli, Dombivali MIDC, Sonarpada, Manpada, Hedutne, Kologaon, Nilje Gaon, Vadvali, Bale, Vaklan, Turbhe, Pisarve Depot, Pisarve and Taloja. This metro route is an extension of the Thane-Bhiwandi-Kalyan Metro 5 route. Therefore, the important cities of Thane and Navi Mumbai will be connected due to the 'Metro 12' route.
For Metro 12 route
A car shed was proposed on a private plot in Pisarve, Navi Mumbai. It is privately owned. As the process of taking possession of the site is time-consuming and requires a lot of funds, MMRDA has sought a new site for the carshed. Accordingly, approximately 45 hectares of land has been found and taken over at Nilje-Niljepada. This is the first metro line to deal with the issue of car shed even before the work of the metro line started. Meanwhile, tenders were submitted by three companies namely Gawar Construction Limited, J. Kumar Infraproject Limited and Welspun Enterprises Limited. Gawar Construction Limited has won it. The contract has been given to this company and now the actual work of this route is starting.
