The Indian Railways is reportedly considering building a semi-high-speed track between Bengaluru and Hyderabad for better connectivity between the two IT key hubs in the southern part of the country.
According to a report by the India Infrahub, the railway track is compatible for running trains at a speed of 200km per hour and the travelling time between two cities can soon be reduced to two-and-a-half hours.
This track will be between Yelahanka Station in Bengaluru to Secunderabad Station in Hyderabad covering a distance of 503km. The project, to be built as part of the PM Gati Shakti initiative, would reportedly cost around ₹30,000 crore.
