Mumbai-Ahmedabad Bullet Train: Four Stations To Get Makeover Under SMART Plan

The National High Speed Rail Corporation Limited (NHSRCL) will be overseeing the upgrades of four stations along the Mumbai-Ahmedabad bullet train route as part of the SMART initiative. These stations, including Virar, Thane, Sabarmati, and Surat, will be transformed into vibrant hubs with enhanced connectivity and modern amenities. The goal is to make it easier for commuters to switch between different modes of transport, reducing travel time, congestion, and emissions. The development will focus on creating self-sustaining urban centers with well-planned infrastructure and staged timelines for expansion. Overall, the SMART initiative aims to reshape these stations into efficient and lively hubs for a new era in Indian rail travel.
