Pune To Get Major Rail Boost As Central Railway Plans Expansion Of Coaching Terminals, Aims To Double Train Capacity By 2030
In a bid to streamline passenger movement and reduce last-minute rush, Pune railway administration has introduced a system to announce platform numbers for arriving trains an hour in advance. The initiative aims to assist passengers, particularly senior citizens, differently abled individuals, and pregnant women.
Following a detailed review, Additional Divisional Railway Manager Padmasingh Jadhav directed the implementation of this system while advising officials to minimize last-minute platform changes. Railway officers and the Railway Protection Force (RPF) will oversee the process to ensure smooth operations.
“We need to manage the crowd at Pune railway station, which is why this decision has been made. Our appeal to passengers is to arrive at the station an hour before their train’s departure,” Jadhav stated.
