Bhubaneswar: The third-line work between Haridaspur and Byree Railway Stations (16.80 Kms) of the ongoing critical Bhadrak-Nergundi 3rd line project has been commissioned.
According to an official press release issued by East Coast Railway (ECoR), the Commissioner of Railway Safety (CRS), South Eastern Circle, Kolkata, recently inspected the Railway Section. During the inspection, all safety aspects were thoroughly examined, and a speed trial was also conducted to measure the feasibility of train traffic.
The construction work for the Bhadrak-Nergundi third-line project on the Howrah-Chennai Mainline, between Bhadrak and Cuttack Railway Stations under Khurda Road Division of East Coast Railway, is proceeding at full swing. More than 60% of the construction works for this project have been completed.
This has been possible due to the consistent review of project works by the Minister of Railways, Ashwini Vaishnaw. Vaishnaw is prioritizing the development of railway infrastructure in the region, along with various project works going on in Odisha, and is also monitoring the developmental works regularly. Bhadrak-Nergundi 3rd line work will boost the region’s economy and provide hassle-free train operations on the Howrah-Chennai Main Line.
