On April 13 and 20, the Bangarapet station will undergo annual cable meggering work, resulting in temporary changes to Mainline Electric Multiple Unit (MEMU) train services. This maintenance work will affect various MEMU trains, including cancellations, partial cancellations, and regulations. Passengers traveling on these routes should take note of the altered schedules to avoid any inconvenience.
Impact on MEMU Train Services
During the maintenance period, several MEMU train services will be directly impacted. Train no. 66548 Marikuppam–Krishnarajapurm MEMU and Train No. 66547 Krishnarajapurm–Marikuppam MEMU will be cancelled on the specified dates. Additionally, other trains will experience partial cancellations and short terminations along their routes. For example, Train no. 66546 KSR Bengaluru–Marikuppam MEMU will be partially cancelled between Whitefield and Marikuppam, with termination at Whitefield. Likewise, Train no. 66545 Marikuppam–KSR Bengaluru MEMU will have a partial cancellation between Marikuppam and Whitefield, now originating from Whitefield at the scheduled time. These adjustments aim to ensure the safety and efficiency of operations during the maintenance work.
Regulation of Train Services
In addition to the cancellations and partial cancellations, certain MEMU train services will be regulated en route. Train no. 66544 Banaswadi-Kuppam MEMU will face a 15-minute regulation on both April 13 and 20. These regulations are necessary to manage the flow of train services and maintain operational standards during the maintenance period.
The impact of the maintenance work extends beyond Bangarapet station, affecting train services due to Road Over Bridge work between Rannebennur and Davangere stations. As a result, specific train services will experience regulations to accommodate the construction activities. For instance, Train no. 17310 Vasco Da Gama–Yesvantpur Express will be regulated for 30 minutes en route during journeys commencing on April 13, 14, 16, and 17. Similarly, Train no. 17391 KSR Bengaluru–SSS Hubballi Express will face a 110-minute regulation during journeys commencing on April 14, 15, 17, and 18. These adjustments are crucial to ensuring the safety and efficiency of train operations amidst ongoing infrastructure developments.
As travelers navigate these temporary changes, it is essential to stay informed about the revised schedules and plan their journeys accordingly. The railway authorities are working diligently to minimize disruptions and provide a seamless travel experience for passengers. By cooperating with the updated arrangements, passengers can contribute to the smooth execution of maintenance work and ensure a safe commuting environment for all.
