Jodhpur railway stn to be revamped at Rs 4.74 bn in 3 years

On the model of Jaipur station, the North-Western Railway (NWR) has begun work on renovating Jodhpur station. The project will cost Rs 4.74 billion (Rs 474 crore) and will be finished in three years.

NWR intends to transform it into a city centre and provide greater amenities for travellers, including elevators, executive lounges, and separate entry and exit gates. A skywalk will connect the concourse and foot overbridge to the new building. Under the capable leadership of general manager Vijay Sharma, the renovation work at Jodhpur station is moving forward quickly.

The Rail Land Development Authority has given a Bengaluru-based construction business a letter of understanding for the project.

At the Jodhpur station, a multi-storey building has been proposed for construction. A 72-m- wide concourse space with 32 new elevators and 16 new escalators will be part of the new station's multi-level parking structure with separate gates for arrival and departure security checking the area and main station building. The skywalk will be connected to the foot overbridges at the station according to Captain Shashi Kiran NWR's head public relations officer.

The station will also contain a baby food area an executive waiting room retail stalls restrooms and a variety of other contemporary passenger amenities. Through a variety of architectural features and motifs including yellow stone latticework arches domes and chhatri among others the complete restoration of Jodhpur station will reflect the rich tradition of Suryanagari.
