Railway Ministry approves final survey for new Nashik-Dahanu rail line

The Ministry of Railways has given the green light for the final location survey of the Nashik-Dahanu new Broad Gauge rail line, marking a significant step forward in enhancing rail connectivity in Maharashtra.

Dr Swapnil Nila, Chief Public Relations Officer, shared with the source that the survey for the 100 km rail line, which will connect Nashik to Dahanu via Trimbakeshwar and Vangaon, has been approved at a cost of Rs 25 million. This new line will link the major towns of Nashik and Dahanu in Palghar district, significantly improving transportation in the region.
