Abstract

The article focuses on the progress of India's bullet train project, highlighting the completion of the first 2.7-km section of a 21-km undersea tunnel between Mumbai's Bandra-Kurla Complex and Thane. This tunnel is part of the Mumbai-Ahmedabad bullet train corridor, which includes a seven-km undersea segment beneath Thane Creek. Construction employs two methods: the New Austrian Tunnelling Method (NATM) and tunnel boring machines (TBMs). Additionally, Indian Railways has made significant advancements in viaduct construction, track laying, and station building, with the project set to utilize Japanese Shinkansen technology for its next-generation E10 trains.
