Yes Because Holealur Mallaprabha river Bridge works are nearing so they can take it. But it may take still more time.
Last time we saw Tenders for Gadag Balganur and Balganur Holealur but still no any doubling works initiated except Works at Gadag Jn outer towards Bijapur line. Even they don't have any major bridge in this stretch except some small culvert and RUB but the doubling works between Gadag Holealur still not yet started so hope they don't do same with this Holealur Bagalkot stretch too. Only left section is wandal to Bagalkot due to two major bridge and lot of culverts for backwaters passage between Bagalkot Mugalolli station.. Which might take more time..
