Railway safety boost: Limited Height Subway constructed on Kiul-Gaya section
The Danapur Division of East Central Railway completed the construction of a Limited Height Subway (LHS) on the Nawada-Tilaiya section of the Kiul-Gaya rail line. The work was finished during a planned 8-hour mega block on June 10, 2026. This new subway aims to stop people from crossing tracks illegally and reduce the risk of accidents.
How was the subway constructed and what technology was used
The railway team used advanced engineering to complete the project quickly. They employed a 200-ton capacity crane and high-power hydraulic jacks to place the structure. The construction relied on pre-cast box technology, which allowed the subway to be installed efficiently within the short time window of the mega block.
What was the impact on train services during the work
To ensure safety during the construction, a mega block was taken on June 9, 2026, from 09:30 AM to 17:30 PM. This led to several disruptions for passengers:
- Four MEMU trains were cancelled.
- Multiple Express and Passenger trains were diverted to other routes.
- Some trains were terminated midway.
Why is this subway important for local safety
Railway officials stated that this specific location saw frequent unauthorized track crossings by locals. By providing a dedicated Limited Height Subway, the railway has given people a safe way to cross without risking their lives. This move strengthens the overall safety of the Kiul-Gaya rail section.
