  1. kittur & mk hubli are well connected with NH4. so no need of having railway line running parallel to it. The proposed route seems good as it goes through bailhongal.

    • We need a Parallel line to NH4 so that the distance between BANGALORE AND MUMBAI has to be reduced,other wise Railway dept will run trains again via Solapur Gulbarga and Guntakal.

      • Imporatance must be given to City Connectivity so that routes are commercially viable.
        A New line from Lokapur Ramdurg Saundattti to connect Dharwad with Kudachi Bagalkot line is advisable,a link fro Saundatti to Bailhongal to Itagi Cross and later to Connect Londa Jn.

  5. Belagavi people want Rly between Dharwad and Bgm to reduce the distance at present, but again it stretched to 97 km,kindly keep the line straight & bring it down to 70 km or less so that it saves time for long distance travelers.

  6. Reaons for laying new rail route is to shorten the distance between belgavi and dharwar. So shortest route is best. Otherwise existing route be continued……..
