The project will encapsulate two new green buildings with an optimum energy consumption setup, combined with renewable energy resources like waste processing and rainwater harvesting machinery.

The new main entry station building will encompass all necessary facilities like departure lobby, vestibule, security check area with baggage scanner, a help-desk, departure hall, toilets, Railway Protection Force (RPF) room and a ticket collector’s office. Additionally, a 72 meter long air concourse will connect both the buildings above the platforms.
