NEED OF KALYAN - TALOJA METRO RAIL CORRIDOR
Purpose of this corridor is to decongest the Mumbai city and accelerate the development activities in the area covered by this corridor.
Area along the corridor is not much habitated. Most of the length of the corridor is passing through agriculture and barren land.
MRTS corridors are generally planned along the highly populated areas to fulfill the transportation need of the masses living in that area.
However, this corridor is termed as Transit-oriented development (TOD)
Transit-oriented development (TOD) is a planning strategy that aims to concentrate jobs, housing, and services around public transport stations.
The connectivity provided by Metro Line 12 not only addresses the current transportation needs of commuters but primarily serves as a catalyst for development along its route.
The upcoming projects along the corridor are as under.

CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
The corridor primarily traverses uninhabited areas, including agriculture and barren land. MMRDA intends to expedite development along the corridor, aiming to provide housing for all. Planned initiatives such as Kalyan Growth Centre and NAINA contribute to this goal. The corridor's purpose is to alleviate congestion in Mumbai and drive development in the covered area.
Hence, this corridor is only a development corridor and will need special efforts if Government decides to implement it.
The project yields positive environmental outcomes such as reduced traffic congestion, time savings, decreased pollution, fuel consumption, and accidents, with suggested environmental management for addressing implementation phase challenges.
