Nagpur Railway Station Platform 2 Closure for 52 Days Platform No. 2 at Nagpur railway station will remain closed for 52 days, starting from April 8 and ending on May 29, to facilitate foundation work for a new concourse as part of the station’s upgradation project. The Rail Land Development Authority (RLDA) is overseeing the project, which aims to modernize the station’s infrastructure. According to an official communication released by Central Railway authorities, the work is being carried out in coordination with a planned non-interlocking block at Gondia station. The closure of Platform 2 will impact several train services, though no trains will be canceled outright. Railway officials have stated that the reduced platform availability will lead to operational adjustments. One train will be short-terminated, meaning it will end its journey before reaching its original destination, while another will be short-originated at Amla station. Additionally, six trains will be diverted to manage congestion at Nagpur station. These measures are intended to ensure the smooth movement of passengers and cargo despite the temporary closure. The project also includes additional overhead equipment (OHE) and traffic blocks on Platform 3 for a few days during the construction period. Authorities have clarified that these temporary disruptions are not expected to significantly affect train operations. However, at least six trains will face regulation, resulting in delays ranging from 10 minutes to over two hours. Passengers are advised to check for updates on train schedules and consider alternative routes or platforms to minimize disruption. The upgradation project is part of broader efforts to improve infrastructure across India’s railway network.#central_railway #nagpur_railway_station #platform_2 #rail_land_development_authority #gondia_station
