The Central Railway has solved the Kurla station puzzle, by shifting the century-old harbour lines on temporary rail tracks built on what was once marsh land, for the construction of the new elevated station as they sync the lines with the upcoming 5th-6th alignment.

"We have set up temporary tracks and the alignment of the harbour lines will be shifted on these two new lines to facilitate the construction of the new elevated station at Kurla like the one at Sandhurst Road. Work on the project is 35 per cent complete," Central Railway Chief Public Relations Officer Shivaji Sutar said.
