Vande Bharat Express expansion in Gujarat

Overview

The Vande Bharat Express service in Gujarat has seen recent expansions and route adjustments. In mid-August, the Sabarmati-Veraval service began operating via a new Gandhigram-Botad route, replacing the previous alignment through Viramgam, Surendranagar, and Rajkot to provide more direct connectivity to the Saurashtra region.

By late August, the Ministry of Railways approved a new service connecting Surat to Udaipur. This service, which will operate six days a week, replaces the existing Udaipur City-Asarva Vande Bharat Express. The new route is expected to reduce travel time between Surat and Udaipur to approximately 7.5 hours.
