Rewari-Phulera Rail Doubling: Phase 4 Set for December Completion
North Western Railway progresses on the Rewari-Phulera rail doubling project to improve connectivity between Haryana and Rajasthan.
The North Western Railway (Jaipur Division) is making significant strides in the Rewari-Phulera rail doubling project, a massive ₹2,208 crore undertaking covering a 215-kilometer corridor. This strategic infrastructure upgrade is designed to significantly enhance line capacity and streamline rail traffic across the region.
A Major Boost for Haryana and Rajasthan Connectivity
The completion of this doubling project will serve as a critical lifeline for commuters and freight movement. By adding more tracks, the railway aims to achieve several key objectives:
- Reduce travel times: Faster transit between Haryana and Rajasthan.
- Relieve congestion: Provide a high-capacity alternative to the heavily burdened Delhi-Jaipur rail corridor.
- Optimize Gujarat traffic: Offer a more efficient route for trains originating from Gujarat.
- Enhance Pilgrimage Access: Improve connectivity for devotees visiting major religious sites like Khatu Shyamji and Salasar Balaji.
Construction Milestones and Phase 4 Timeline
Significant progress has already been made, with successful patch doubling completed in key sections, including the stretch between Kund and Khori stations. Looking ahead, railway authorities have targeted December 2026 for the execution of the fourth phase of the project.
Impact on Train Services and Passenger Advisory
To facilitate these essential infrastructure upgrades, non-interlocking blocks were implemented between August 12 and September 24, 2026. These operational requirements led to the temporary diversion and cancellation of several train services. During this period, Khori station also saw a temporary suspension of scheduled train stoppages to allow for uninterrupted site work.
To avoid any inconvenience caused by ongoing construction and operational adjustments, passengers are strongly advised to follow these steps:
- Verify the current status of their trains via the official IRCTC website.
- Use the NTES app for real-time updates before heading to the station.
