• Structural work is completed for six out of eight stations in Gujarat
• Work has started on all three elevated stations. Base slab at Mumbai Bullet Train station is being cast in Maharashtra for which approx. 75% excavation work (i.e., 14 lakhs cubic meter) has been completed. A total of 1872263 m3 earthwork is required to be excavated from this site. Base slab will form the deepest construction level for the Bullet Train station. Approx. 200,000 cu.m. concrete will be poured only for base slab casting. So, far 25,000 cu.m. concrete has already been poured. Each base slab casting required 3000 to 4000 cubic meters of concrete at controlled temperatures, which is being produced by in-situ batching plants and chiller plants. 100% secant piling (3384 nos.) work has already been completed for the site.
