Final tunnel excavation completed on key rail link
Orissa POST
|June 02, 2025
The Khurda Road-Bolangir new rail line project has achieved a major milestone with the successful breakthrough of Tunnel T2, completing excavation for all seven tunnels along the strategic corridor.
The final breakthrough, accomplished on May 30 between Buguda and Daspalla in Nayagarh district, marks a crucial step toward seamless rail connectivity across Odisha.
Tunnel T2, measuring 1,775 meters with a 2-degree curve, is the second longest in the district and was built using the New Austrian Tunneling Method (NATM), an advanced technique ideal for challenging terrain. This tunnel is a vital part of the 75-kilometer stretch between Daspalla and Purunakatak, where all planned tunnel excavations have now been completed.
This milestone is part of the larger effort to complete the 301-kilometer rail line linking Khurda Road in eastern Odisha to Bolangir in the west. To date, 226 kilometers of the line are operational, with ongoing work on the remaining 75 kilometers between Purunakatak and Adhenigarh.
