Demand

They utilized public forums and social media to raise awareness about their concerns and to advocate for the establishment of a transit stop.^[2] This kind of grassroots effort highlights the importance of community engagement in addressing local transportation issues.

A footbridge was constructed in April 2019.

Hoodi Halt has two platforms, each 400 metres (1,300 ft) long, shelters, lighting, benches and a booking office.^[3]
