The Mumbai–Hyderabad High Speed Rail Corridor is a planned high-speed rail line connecting India's economic hub Mumbai with the city of Hyderabad. When completed, it will be one of key links in India's high-speed rail line network along with Mumbai-Ahmedabad line.[4]

Set to be the third high-speed rail line project of India involving Mumbai, this project will reduce the travel time between the two cities from existing 15 hours journey to around 3.5 hours journey. The terminal for this corridor may be built in Navi Mumbai, which is planned to be integrated with the currently under-construction international airport. Besides the airport, it will be linked with Navi Mumbai Metro and the connectivity is further set to expand with a connection to the Mumbai Trans Harbour Link, work on which is underway.[2]

Stations[edit]

Planned stations - Navi Mumbai, Lonavla, Pune, Daund, Akluj, Pandharpur, Solapur, Kalaburagi, Zaheerabad and Hyderabad.[5]
