Start early if you are travelling on Western Railway (WR) this month as trains will remain slow and delayed following the work of building an additional corridor between Goregaon and Kandivli. The speed limits will continue for the entire month delaying trains on the line. The work is for the greater good as the new corridor, once complete, will segregate the local traffic from national traffic, offer more paths, and allow the Railways to increase services eventually,” a WR spokesperson said.
