So it's already at 50.That's great to hear.I guess the progression from here on in will be swift with a large workforce basing itself in and around Nellore.
Similarly i expect an increase in the floating population as well.Nellore needs regular services to Chennai and Bezwada and additional services towards
Tirupati and Bangalore.
.
The...
more... works for the 2nd phase for Krishnapatnam-Obu. rail line are underway.They are constructing a Rail over Rail Bridge and Rail over Road Bridge just
after Venkatachalam right where the Chennai-Delhi trunk line branches off to Krishnapatnam.I think this is the only place in the busy BZA-MAS section
where we'll see a Rail over Rail bridge when once completed.At present four to five pillars have been laid if i am not mistaken.The rail line is heading towards
the famous Kasumuru Dargah or someplace close.
.
Given that a lot of tunnel work was involved during the 1st phase and no such geographical challenges from here on,i expect the 2nd phase to move at a quicker
pace.Would be great if someone from that region can post some photographs to show work-in-progress.
.
The distance from Kasumuru to Adurupalli(Spelling) is roughly 30 kms. if we take a straight line.Adurupalli will probably be the closest rail head to Krishanapatnam-Obu.
ral line.Adurupalli is part be part of the Srikalahasthi-Nadikudi rail line and if when completed will help the development of backward areas in Nellore and Ongole dist.
May be if Krishnapatnam becomes a big industrial hub,they can lay a branch line from Kasumuru to Adurupalli and connect the two lines.
.
Hopefully happy times are ahead of Nellore and Ongole districts.
