Four railway stations in Kerala to get makeover
The 90 stations have been described by the railways as the most visited stations in the country. As reported, some of the stations are important pilgrimage hubs and report over 45,000 footfalls on an average every day.
For the Kerala stations, the plan will be implemented directly by the respective zone headquarters at Kozhikode, Kottayam and Palakkad. At Ernakulam, it will be implemented by the NBCC (India) as the nodal agency. In the development plan, efforts will be made to showcase local culture or history to reflect in the station façade.
The redevelopment plan for the purpose has been formulated and has been assigned to the different zones or selected nodal agencies. The move is also to ensure that the passengers get best services at the stations even during peak seasons.
