History
During the period 1893 to 1896, 800 miles of East Coast State Railway was built and opened to traffic. It necessitated construction of some of the largest bridges across rivers like Brahmani, Kathajodi, Kuakhai and Birupa.[3]
Bhubaneshwar Railway Station will also be redevelopment at an estimated cost of 397.58 crore.[4]
New Bhubaneswar
As Bhubaneswar railway station is getting saturated, a satellite passenger terminal is under construction at New Bhubaneswar (between Mancheswar and Barang). While Bhubaneswar railway station is located on the southern side of the city, New Bhubaneswar railway station would be located on the northern side.[5]
