Bengaluru: India’s first centralized AC railway terminal at Bengaluru is all set to be inaugurated soon.

The railway terminal at the city’s Baiyappanahalli area, named after Bharat Ratna Sir M. Visvesvaraya, is equipped with state-of-the-art facilities and claims to have an airport-like aura. South Western Railways had earlier informed that the terminal would be ready by the end of February.

The soon to be inaugurated AC railway terminal is going to give a feel of the airport with great interiors and a modern look for the foot-over bridge and the railway tracks.

The Rs 314-crore station building of 4,200 sqm will cater to a daily footfall of 50,000. A foot over-bridge along with two subways will link all platforms. The terminal has seven platforms apart from eight stabling lines and three pit lines. Every day, 50 trains can be operated from the terminal. The escalators and lifts will connect seven platforms to facilitate passenger movement.

The terminal will have parking facilities for 250 cars, 900 two-wheelers, 50 autorickshaws, five BMTC buses and 20 cabs.
