Surat, March 27: Major redevelopment work at Surat Station is set to impact several key train services operated by Western Railway. The construction, which involves installing a ‘through roof’ between platforms 2, 3, and 4, will commence on March 30, 2026, and is expected to last for 30 days.
As a result of this construction, Western Railway has announced changes to the operations of three major trains. A press release issued by Vinit Abhishek, the Chief Public Relations Officer of Western Railway, has informed passengers about these changes.
The affected trains include the 12935 Bandra Terminus-Surat Superfast Express, which will terminate at Udhna Station instead of Surat Station from March 30 to April 28, 2026. Additionally, train number 20925 Surat-Amravati Superfast Express will commence its journey from Udhna Station between April 2 and April 26, 2026.
Consequently, train services between Surat and Udhna will be partially canceled. Train number 20926 Amravati-Surat Superfast Express, running from March 30 to April 27, 2026, will also terminate at Udhna Station, leading to partial cancellations between Surat and Udhna.
Western Railway has urged passengers to plan their journeys accordingly, keeping these changes in mind. Travelers are advised to check the current status of trains via the railway’s official website, the NTES app, or by contacting 139.
The redevelopment work at Surat Station is part of the railway modernization initiative aimed at enhancing passenger facilities. Once completed, the station will feature improved roofing, better platform amenities, and modern infrastructure, benefiting thousands of travelers.
Railway officials have stated that all necessary measures are being taken to minimize passenger inconvenience during the construction period. Additional arrangements are being made at Udhna Station to ensure that affected train passengers do not face any difficulties. Passengers are urged not to arrive at the station without confirmation and to check the train status regularly.
