The Government of India has announced the commissioning of electronic interlocking and large-scale yard remodelling project at Dadri Railway Station in the state of Uttar Pradesh.

Dadri station comes under Indian Railways' Allahabad Division of the North Central Railway, and this latest initiative is expected to increase mobility on the busy Delhi-Howrah route.

The project forms part of a wider modernisation scheme for the Indian Railways network.

The electronic interlocking includes 318 routes that have adopted modern signalling system, with centralised operation controlling 45 signals, 74 points and 176 track circuits with yard remodelling.
