Secunderabad–Kazipet route to get 4 tracks, cut travel timePeople travelling from Hyderabad towards Balharshah, Nagpur, or Delhi may be able to reach faster as travel time on the route is expected to drop by 30 to 60 minutes. The forever busy rail line between Secunderabad and Kazipet will be be expanded into a four-track route.
This 110-km-long project is expected to cost over Rs 2,800 crore. The final location survey is already done, and SCR has sent the detailed project report (DPR) to the Railway Board for approval.
