In a major infrastructure boost for the Indian Railways in the North Central zone, the CCEA chaired by PM has approved construction of the Aligarh-Harduaganj 22 km long flyover at an investment of ₹1,285 crore. Director and Principal Spokesperson K.S. Dhatwalia said that the project is expected to be completed in the next five years. The railway flyover will be built around 3 km away from the Aligarh railway station and will come under the North Central Railway (NCR) zone. At the Aligarh junction railway station, the Bareilly-Aligarh branch line terminates and the trains which are coming from the Howrah side and going towards the Harduaganj or Bareilly area, cross the Howrah-New Delhi main route and is the busiest section of the Indian Railways network. Due to the heavy traffic on the section, there is almost no space or area available for major surface crossing of the loaded freight trains. This situation often results in heavy detention of trains at the Aligarh junction railway station and has become a site of extreme congestion, causing train delays and sometimes, the wagons of freight trains have to turn around on the operational route.
