Mysuru: In first-of-its-kind initiative, South Western Railway (SWR) zone, which has jurisdiction over Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra and Goa, has embarked upon a plan to translocate 46 trees, which otherwise would have been felled to make way for track doubling.
Devaragudda is a crossing station at about 369 km from Bengaluru in Bengaluru-Hubballi route. SWR is executing doubling works in Tumakuru-Arsikere (95 km) and Chikjajur-Hubballi (194 km) sections in this route. Devaragudda is a two line station in Mysuru Division and on account of doubling, this station is to be developed into four-line crossing station.
