The work to restore the second up line has also been taken up on war-footing and is likely to be cleared for traffic by Wednesday.

Breaches on track occurred at several locations between Elamanchili-Narsingapalli-Bayyavaram stations on this route due to heavy rains in the aftermath of Cyclone Hudhud.
