The non-interlocking work will be carried out on June 30, and the signaling system at Vadodara station will be upgraded. Currently, work is underway to extend the length of platforms number 4 and 5 for passenger convenience. This will enable the operation of 22-coach trains on these platforms.
Currently, the length of platform number 4 is 498 meters, which will be increased to 592 meters. Similarly, the length of platform number 5 will be increased from 498 meters to 568 meters. For this, work is being done on the shifting of turnout, signals, and overhead wires.

This yard remodeling and platform extension work will further strengthen the operational capacity of Vadodara station and will assist in providing better and more efficient rail services in accordance with future traffic requirements.
