Mysuru Division of South Western Railway (SWR) has commenced the development works of Subrahmanya Road railway station (SBHR) at an estimated cost of ₹22.97 crore under the Amrit Bharat Station Scheme.
Located at Nettana village in Kadaba taluk and located about 12 km from pilgrimage centre Kukke Subrahmanya, SBHR predominantly caters to the travelling needs of pilgrims visiting Kukke Subrahmanya, Dharmasthala, and Southadka in Dakshina Kannada district.
Thousands of pilgrims make use of the station travelling by Bengaluru-Kannur-Bengaluru, Bengaluru-Karwar-Bengaluru, Bengaluru-Murdeshwar-Bengaluru, Yeshwantpur-Mangaluru Junction/ Karwar-Yeshwantpur and Vijayapura-Mangaluru Junction-Vijayapura Express trains every day.
Senior Divisional Commercial Manager of Mysuru Division J. Lohiteshwara told The Hindu that the division plans to complete the development works before next June.
The station building facade would be improved keeping the existing theme that replicates the Kukke temple style.
The concourse area would be expanded to hold more people with separate waiting rooms for men and women. Considering pilgrims need the facility for short stay, the SWR would also provide retiring rooms and dormitory facilities at the Station building, he said.
Besides, all the existing passenger amenities would be refurbished including replacement of flooring on the platforms. Platform shelters for PF 1 and 2 would be provided on the entire length of platforms.
Nearly 50% of Dakshina Kannada’s shoreline has been eroded, the highest among the three coastal districts of Karnataka, according to a study for the period 1990-2018 by the National Centre for Coastal Research (NCCR).
