Being covered is important for our bodies and infrastructure since exposed inner structures don't look good. The cover resembles the platform shelter roof (traditional blue n white detergent powder livery)... look at the unbarricaded tracks.... nice snap :-)

this type of escalators are under construction at Asansol Junction too.
Durgapur does not actually need these....waste of money.
