“Modernisation will ensure smoother operations and more hygiene at platforms. Each platform will have washable aprons which will contribute to a cleaner environment,” Upadhyay said.
He said that the construction of two new 12-metre wide foot-over bridges will facilitate easy access and the development of a 72-metre wide air concourse will connect all seven platforms.
“Construction of a new 4,500 sqm second entry station building on the Narwal side and upgradation of the main station building with a 15,600 sqm facility with modern amenities are some major achievements,” Upadhyay said.
“Besides increasing the train handling capacity of the station, the yard remodelling will also involve replacing outdated mechanical interlocking systems with advanced electronic interlocking for improved safety and efficiency among other things,” he added.
