History

The Guntur–Macherla section was opened in 1930. A new railway line from Bibinagar to Nadikudi was started in 1974, and foundation stone was laid by then-Prime Minister of India Indira Gandhi on 7 April 1974. It opened for traffic in 1989 there by making connectivity between Guntur Junction and Secunderabad Junction.[4]

In 2023, the Centre cleared the doubling of Guntur-Bibinagar railway. The long-pending project is estimated to cost 2,853 crore and will be monitored by the Prime Minister's Office.[5][6]
