Summary:

Interestingly, the terminal building for Surat will be an elevated structure as national highway (NH-48) will pass below it. The exteriors of the terminal building will look like multiple diamonds kept in a row while the aerial view of the building will also reflect shape of a diamond. NHSRCL is close to finalizing design of Bilimora station which is likely to be themed around mangroves.“As Surat is known as India’s diamond hub, the entire terminal building will be themed around diamond. After Sabarmati and Vadodara, the National High Speed Rail Corporation Limited (NHSRCL) which is implementing the Ahmedabad-Mumbai high speed rail corridor project has finalized the designs of terminal hubs of Surat and Vapi. The station for Vapi will be constructed at Dungra village, located near the state highway and roughly 5.5 km away from NH-48..
