Kalwa station will soon be two-storey like Sandhurst Road. In a big boost to Mumbai railway connectivity, the railways on Monday finally floated tenders to begin construction work on the Airoli-Kalwa link, which will connect Navi Mumbai to Kalyan-Kasara directly for local trains.

An official of the Mumbai Railway Vikas Corporation (MRVC) said a rail flyover has been planned with a ballastless track and construction of an elevated Kalwa station including platforms, booking office, connected foot underbridges, staircases and related works. The tentative cost of the entire project and railway line is estimated at Rs 476 crore.
