This newly inspected section includes the construction of 8 major bridges, 80 minor bridges, 42 crossing bodies and an absolute block signalling working system, the update informed.

It is to be mentioned here that with the laying of double line infrastructure, movement of trains, (passengers and freights), can be done in both directions without stop-over crossings at stations which will increase the punctuality of trains, the update further informed.
