Kazipet-Peddapalli section are Hasanparthy, Oppal, Peddapalli and in
Peddepalli-Lingampet Jagtial section are Sultanabad, Karimnagar,
Gangadhara, Lingampet Jagtiyal & Metpalli
The identified soft upgrades includes improvement of approach road,
provision of Resting sheds for hamalies, widening of existing loading
platforms, drainage improvements, improvement of illumination,
development of greenery etc. At these stations, based on the

concrete pathway has been planned and for the locations where
granite loading is perceived, macadam road has been adopted. At
