Rly Board Requests Location Survey for all Seven Circular Rail Corridors

The Board has directed the division to finalise the Feasibility and Location Survey (FLS) for the remaining six corridors of the project before moving forward with the implementation of a single corridor. Since the plan involves a circular rail network, the completion of all corridors is essential to ensure the project's overall functionality.

Additionally, the second phase of the Bengaluru Suburban Rail Project (BSRP), covering a distance of 146 km, will be integrated with the Circular Rail project. BSRP Phase-2 consists of extensions to Phase-1 of the suburban rail system, further strengthening Bengaluru’s rail connectivity.

Once completed, the Circular Rail project is expected to enhance urban and suburban mobility, easing congestion and providing seamless connectivity across multiple regions. The integration with BSRP Phase-2 is expected to further optimize rail transport efficiency, contributing to improved accessibility for commuters in and around Bengaluru.
