The Surat-Bilimore section of the Mumbai-Ahmedabad bullet train project has entered the final construction phase. The National High Speed Rail Corporation Ltd (NHSRCL) claims work is progressing well and fast for completing India's first bullet train corridor. The 508-km Mumbai–Ahmedabad High-Speed Rail (MAHSR) corridor passes through Gujarat, Maharashtra, and the Union Territory of Dadra & Nagar Haveli. Civil works and laying of track-bed have been fully completed for the 47-km priority corridor of Surat to Bilimora. The full project features 465 km (about 85% of the route) on viaducts, ensuring minimal land disturbance and enhanced safety. Until now, 326 km of viaduct work is done, and 17 out of 25 river bridges have already been constructed. The Surat-Bilimora section will be operational by 2027. Indian Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw said the full project is expected to be completed by December, 2029. The Railway Minister further added that the bullet train services will be extended to Thane by 2028 and will finally reach Mumbai by 2029. The Mumbai-Ahmedabad Bullet train corridor will have 12 stations. These are: Mumbai, Thane, Virar, Boisar, Vapi, Billimora, Surat, Bharuch, Vadodara, Anand, Ahmedabad and Sabarmati. Prime Minister Narendra Modi visited under construction Surat bullet train station and reviewed the progress of the Mumbai–Ahmedabad High-Speed Rail Corridor (MAHSR). The design of the Surat station draws inspiration from the city’s world-renowned diamond industry, reflecting both elegance and functionality.
