Introduction
Project Funding
The Western Corridor covers a distance of 1483 km of double line electric (2 X 25 KV) track from JNPT to Dadri via Vadodara-
Project Status
Ahmedabad-Palanpur-Phulera-Rewari. In addition, a single line connection of 32km long from proposed Pirthala Junction Station (near
Asaoti on Delhi-Mathura line) to Tughlakabad is also proposed to be provided. Alignment has been generally kept parallel to existing
lines except provision of detour at Diva, Surat, Ankleshwar, Bharuch, Vadodara, Anand, Ahmedabad, Palanpur, Phulera and Rewari.

Rajasthan 553

Total 1483
However, it is entirely on a new alignment from Rewari to Dadri. For providing connection to Tughlakabad ICD, a single line parallel to
the existing Delhi-Mathura line is proposed to be taken from Pirthala junction station (near Asaoti) to Tughlakabad. Moreover, the
Western DFC is proposed to join Eastern Corridor at Dadri. Junction Stations between the existing railway system and the Western
DFC have been provided at Vasai Road, Kosad/ Gothangam, Makarpura (Vadodara), Amli Road (Sabarmati), Palanpur, Marwar Jn.,
Phulera, Rewari and Pirthala Road.
The traffic on the Western Corridor mainly comprises of ISO containers from JNPT and Mumbai Port in Maharashtra and ports of
Pipavav, Mundra and Kandla in Gujarat destined for ICDs located in northern India, especially at Tughlakabad, Dadri and
Dandharikalan. Besides Containers, other commodities moving on the Western DFC are POL, Fertilizers, Food grains, Salt, Coal,
Iron & Steel and Cement. Further, owing to its faster growth as compared to other commodities, the share of container traffic is
expected to progressively increase and reach a level of about 80% by 2021-22. The rail share of container traffic on this corridor is
slated to increase from 0.69 million TEUs in 2005-06 to 6.2 million TEUs in 2021-22. The other commodities are projected to increase
from 23 million tonnes in 2005-06 to 40 million tonnes in 2021-22. As a result, the maximum number of trains in the section is
projected as 109 trains each way in Ajmer-Palanpur section.
It is proposed to set up Logistics Parks at Mumbai area, particularly in the vicinity of Kalyan-Ulhasnagar or Vashi-Belapur in Navi
Mumbai, Vapi in southern Gujarat, Ahmedabad area in Gujarat, Gandhidham in the Kutch region of Gujarat, Jaipur area in Rajasthan,
NCR of Delhi.These locations have been selected on the basis that these have a good concentration of diverse industries and
constitute major production/consumption centres. These are also well connected by rail and road systems for convenient movement
in different directions. These parks are proposed to be developed on Public Private Partnership mode by creating a sub-SPV for the
same. DFCCIL proposes to provide rail connectivity to such parks and private players would be asked to develop and provide state of
the art infrastructure as a common user facility.
As per RITES project report, the traffic that would move on the Western DFC, excluding the base year traffic (2005-06), is projected as

Technical Innovations
DFC will build its two corridors with appropriate technology that will enable Indian Railways to regain its market share of freight
transport by creating additional capacity and guaranteeing efficient, reliable, safe and cheaper options for mobility to its customers. To

achieve these objectives, DFCC will encourage use of latest technological innovations in the area of track, electrification, signaling and
train operations. All DFC contracts will be Design-Build contracts to permit new technologies to be adopted on DFC corridors.
