However, one track came under protected mangrove area, so the decision was made to replace the plan for two tiers, by building a single cantilever pier with connecting beams to achieve the necessary span, dropping the plan for two piers.įor this construction, an additional Rs 33.85 crore is required, said the MMRDA.North America is a continent in Pocket Trains.

This development is intended to eliminate the need for trains to travel till the end station - by allowing additional facility for the trains to park off the mainline on the siding line.įollowing this, at the Bhakti Park Metro station, initial plans were made to construct two portal piers at a height on a barge to support the pocket track. This is expected with the operations plan for the Metro Line-4 linked with other metro corridors of the network - namely Metro Line-11 between Wadala and CSMT, Metro Line-4A between Kasarvadavali and Gaimukh, and Metro Line-10 between Gaimukh and Shivaji Chowk, Mira Road.
