Jammu-Srinagar in 3 Hours: Railways Unveils New Fast-Track Timetable

A principal migratory line for the Indian Railways, Jammu-Srinagar, will now have a timetable featuring a reduction in the travel time between the two places to only 3 hours, thus affording quicker ways of navigating the Kashmir Valley. This step is notable due to its full-scale changes in the way people will be able to get to places and back to Kashmir, as it will give them a fast and effective means of transportation.
One of the reasons for the long time is that the distance from Jammu to Srinagar is over 6 hours by road. The newly launched rail service is going to be a more convenient, smoother, safer, and more efficient way of traveling. This is due to the trains arriving on time and that the people can board and come down from them without any grappling. This technology will help to re-mobilize the transportation networks after the usual road facilities breakdown following negative weather elements and the burden of the polluting highways.
The revised schedule of the new trains is a kind of significant improvement that would increase the level of passenger service on this line by increasing the number of trains on the route; thus, it will allow a larger number of people to travel and avoid them to use their cars. The recent development is part of a larger project of the popular 'Indian Railways' concerning bettering the accessibility and boosting the attractive features of tourist spots in the Kashmir valley. Also, consequently, it means there will be fewer private cars on the highway and a more convenient transport option will be in place.
Although the rapid access will be a major factor for many, it will also provide a positive economic impact, thus forge new business ties and grow the touristic branches for the unparalleled scenic Kashmir Valley. This new and timely upgradation of transportation is a likely beginning of the modernization of the Valley transport systems.
