These include the New Sanand (North)-New Makarpura, New Umbergaon-New Saphale and New Saphale-New JNPT sections

The direct connectivity to the Jawaharlal Nehru Port Authority (JNPA) will facilitate faster movement of EXIM cargo, strengthen connectivity between industrial centres and ports, reduce logistics costs and help decongest Mumbai's railway network
