Bhubaneswar, 09.12.2024: As part of Indian Railways’ grand plan to upgrade and modernize key Stations across the country, significant yard restructuring work is being undertaken at Bhadrak Railway Station. This project aims to enhance operational efficiency and improve train management at this crucial station, a key hub in the railway network of the East Coast Railway (ECoR) zone.

Bhadrak Railway Station plays a pivotal role in regional logistics and passenger transport, being one of the critical stations under the East Coast Railway zone. This modernization project will not only increase the station’s handling capacity but will also ensure a more streamlined, efficient rail service for passengers and goods traffic alike. Once completed, passengers can expect smoother train operations, reduced waiting times and enhanced overall service quality.

3rd Line construction work is going on in Bhadrak-Ranital Railway Section. Non-Interlocking work will be done for smooth passing of trains at Bhadrak Railway Station. Apart from this, other ongoing works like comprehensive yard remodeling will involve shifting the Bay Line, Loco Reversal Line and Inspection Carriage Siding. The Bay Line will also be extended to a full-length platform as part of this modernization work. The project is expected to take few days. Indian Railways remains committed to upgrading infrastructure in line with increasing passenger demand, regional development, and national logistics requirements.

Key Aspects of the Restructuring Work:

• Interlocking to all Platforms: All the platforms at Bhadrak Railway Station will be interlocked with third line and additional loop lines, extending the station’s capacity to handle more trains and passengers.

• Extra Lines for Smooth Operations: Additional lines are being added to facilitate the easy movement and control of trains, reducing delays and enhancing punctuality.

• Improved Train Movement: Once completed, trains will be able to enter Bhadrak Station smoothly, without detentions at nearby stations.

In view of the above, it has been decided to cancel, divert and partially cancel some of the train on temporary basis for a period of 10 days which will provide more benefits in future. The trains to be cancelled includes 04 pairs of Regular Mail/Express Trains, 05 pairs of Regular Local Passenger/MEMU Trains, 11 pairs of weekly trains and 03 pairs of bi-weekly trains. Two pairs of trains will be partially cancelled. The affected trains are mentioned in the annexure for reference. Passengers are also requested to cooperate Railways for this modernization work for smooth train operation in future.
