Rail infrastructure in Coimbatore district to get a boost soon
Coimbatore: The railway infrastructure in the district is all set to get a boost with the Southern Railway considering various long pending demands in its list of work shortlisted for 2025-26. To start with, the railway department has allocated Rs3.46 crore for the development of Singanallur station. While five trains have stoppages at Singanallur station, not many are aware of its existence, thanks to lack of proper entrance and exit points, terminal and approach roads. J Sathish, joint secretary, Resident Awareness Association of Coimbatore, said the railway should consider creating an entrance and exit on the eastern or western side, that is towards SIHS Colony or Neelikonampalayam Road. "Both these directions come with good approach roads, whereas the present entrance and exit located on the south side is a narrow lane. Additional facilities like drinking water, toilets and renovation of the terminal building are needed. " The railway department has allocated another Rs6.42 crore to increase the platform height at Irugur and Somanur stations, Rs2.97 crore to upgrade LHB coach maintenance facility at Coimbatore Junction, Rs41.13 crore to develop a coach maintenance facility at Podanu and yet another Rs18.46 crore for the modernization of goods sheds at Irugur and Coimbatore North stations. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like After Losing Weight Kevin James Looks Like A Model 33 Bridges Undo Irugur depot is known for generating significant freight revenue. It mainly handles petroleum products, cement, food grains and fertilizers. "Other divisions of the Southern Railway have ports, whereas the Salem division lacks one. Even then, Irugur generates freight revenues to the tune of Rs275-Rs300 crore yearly. Hence, improving the goods shed there is the need of the hour. Located at the centre of the city, Coimbatore North station could be completely utilised for passenger traffic. The railway should consider shifting the entire freight operations to Irugur," Sathish said.
