Set to be the third high-speed rail line project of India involving Mumbai, this project will cut short the travel time between the two cities from existing 15-hour-journey to a mere 3 and a half hour journey. The terminal for this corridor may be built in Navi Mumbai, which is planned to be integrated with the currently under-construction international airport. Besides the airport, it will be linked with Navi Mumbai's metro and the connectivity is further set to expand with a connection to the Mumbai Trans Harbour Link, work on which is underway.[2]
