Metro Line 5 extn on cards to ease pressure off local trains
Thane: After the train accident in Mumbra, in which four passengers lost their lives, questions were raised about the crowd in the local trains beyond the stations of Thane. With the aim of reducing crowd in local trains, Kalyan Lok Sabha MP Shrikant Shinde called a meeting of senior officials of MMRDA in which it was decided to extend Metro Line 5, which is coming up to Kalyan from Thane via Bhiwandi, further to Ambernath via Ulhasnagar. Shrikant Shinde told TOI, "The Thane-Bhiwandi-Kalyan Metro Line 5 project will now be extended from Durgadi Naka, via Kalyan, along the Kalyan-Badlapur Road to reach Chikhloli Railway Station in Ambernath, which is centrally located between Ulhasnagar and Ambernath. This will ease commuting between Badlapur–Ambernath and Mumbai–Thane, reduce pressure on suburban trains, ensure faster transit, and contribute to savings in time, fuel, and environmental resources. " Shinde also mentioned that, along with Metro Line 5, other infrastructure-related projects that are ongoing by MMRDA have been asked to speed up their work. A high-level meeting was chaired on Friday by MMRDA commissioner Dr Sanjay Mukherjee at the MMRDA headquarters.
