Chief minister Vijay Rupani has gifted his hometown yet another prized project. The state government has granted in-principle approval to a semi high speed rail (HSR) project between Ahmedabad and Rajkot. The project, estimated to cost Rs 24000 crore, will subsequently be linked to the Ahmedabad-Mumbai high speed rail corridor project of the Union government.
The state government proposes to build an elevated corridor on the existing national highway 47, between Ahmedabad and Rajkot, thus minimising the contentious land acquisition issue. Trains will achieve speeds in excess of 160 kilometres per hour on the route and the travelling time between the two cities will be reduced to just over two hours
“The CM has directed officials to expedite the project. Various detailed surveys for the project will be initiated soon. The government aims to start the project work parallel to the Ahmedabad-Mumbai high speed rail corridor project,” the official added.
According to initial estimates, the project cost of implementing the semi HSR system between Ahmedabad and Rajkot is approximately Rs 24,000 crores. This however excludes acquisition cost, land cost, rolling stock cost, station cost and any other miscellaneous costs, says the primary survey report prepared by the state government. The project is expected to generate about 2,300 direct jobs and around 7,300 indirect jobs over the next 30 years
