In what will expedite project work and help commuters beyond Kalyan, the work of new infra projects and that of a new rail corridor between Kalyan and Badlapur took a big leap in a period of two hours 25 minutes on the intervening nights of Saturday and Sunday with the launch of 22 girders for multiple projects, a record of sorts.
While 22 girders were launched by the Mumbai Railway Vikas Corporation (MRVC) as a part of the Kalyan-Badlapur additional corridor project, the CR team also launched all sets of girders of the Patri Pul in a period of three hours 20 minutes, replaced turnouts, and overhead wires, and completed a host of other works.
