India ke pehle high-speed rail project ke liye ek badi khushkhabri! National High Speed Rail Corporation Limited (NHSRCL) ne Mumbai-Ahmedabad Bullet Train corridor ke third mountain tunnel mein breakthrough achieve kiya hai. Yeh breakthrough Maharashtra ke Palghar district mein hua hai, jo 508-kilometre-long corridor ke construction mein ek important milestone hai. Ye corridor India ki financial capital (Mumbai) ko Gujarat ke commercial hub (Ahmedabad) se connect karega.
Ye tunnel, jo Boisar aur Vapi ke beech 21-kilometre-long underground stretch ka hissa hai, New Austrian Tunnelling Method (NATM) ka istemal karke banaya ja raha hai. Is method mein controlled excavation aur support involve hota hai, jo surface disruption ko kam aur geologically challenging terrain mein safety ko badhata hai. Tunnel Western Ghats ke typical hard rock formations se guzarta hai, isliye specialized drilling aur blasting techniques ki zarurat hai.
