Free Bus Service for Diverted Trains Announced by Railway
Due to construction at Cuttack Railway Station, some trains will take a different route.
To help passengers, the railway is offering free bus rides between Cuttack and Naraj Marthapur stations.
This means if you're going to Cuttack on one of these trains, you'll get off at Naraj Marthapur and take a bus to Cuttack.
If you're leaving from Cuttack, you'll take a bus to Naraj Marthapur to catch your train.
This is happening from August 11 to September 21 while the station is being improved, including new buildings and platform work.
Make sure to arrive early at the station.
East Coast Railway (ECoR) will provide free bus services for passengers of diverted trains.
Three trains will be diverted from August 11 to September 21 due to modernization work at Cuttack Railway Station.
The diverted trains include 12515 Coimbatore–Silchar, 22643 Ernakulam–Patna, and 12509 Bengaluru–Guwahati Express.
Passengers will be transported between Cuttack and Naraj Marthapur stations via free bus services.
The temporary changes facilitate infrastructure upgrades, including a new Air Concourse at Cuttack Station.
