South Coast Railway commissioned the 15.121 km double-line section between Nandyal and Gajulapalli on November 6. Authorised for train operations at a permissible speed of 100 kmph, the newly doubled section marks an important milestone in the ongoing Guntur–Guntakal doubling project.
The statutory inspection and speed authorisation for the section were carried out by the commissioner of railway safety (CRS) on November 3.
The commissioning of the Nandyal–Gazulapalli section eliminates a critical bottleneck along the route. It significantly enhances line capacity, improves operational flexibility for train operations, and bolsters both passenger convenience and freight throughput across the Guntur–Guntakal corridor, a release said on Monday.
