Totally agree with your view point that un-authorise vendor is a menace to this track from New Jalpaiguri to Siliguri Junction...
Not only that Railway Gate near to Mahabirstan and Siliguri Town Station is changed into a mini Market... Very difficult for train movement...
.
Note the train movement has increased many folds in this stretch ... So doubling is needed fron NJP to...

SIR then what is the use of constructing that flyover near Siliguri Town....??? Both Indian Railways & SJDA have invested crores in building,still that level crossing gate has not been removed...I think rly should permanently seal the gate...as we go little ahead towards SGUJ can see boundary walls,same walls or fence should be created along the tracks....already SGUj APDJ section has been affected by elephant corridor,now we cannot compromise speed in SGUJ NJP section...totally agree that NG section can be converted into dual gauge..another parrallel bridge on Mahananda can also be considered...whatever gates remaining,can be upgraded to RoB or RuB....this is no uphill task...only proper planning is required on part of W.B. Govt & Katihar Division,NFR.....

The construction of the flyover has eased the traffic movement from Hill Cart road to NJP bound vehicle... Previously it was a night mare
for any one travelling to NJP... This stretch could take hours in a bad situation...
.
Though this much demanded flyover whose construction was to start some 15-20 years back didn't happened... Their was many reason... It was planned that...

its better to shift this market place near Matigara/Shiv Mandir area instead of crowding Court More/Siliguri Town...Indian Railways cant compromise its speed because of problem in Siliguri Metropolitan Area...One RuB was constructed at the approach of Mahananda Bridge & that has been turned into a sewage canal....everywhere we can see mismanagement & ultimate sufferer are the people of Dooars...Nowhere we can see Running Time in NJP-APDJ stretch can match that of NJP NOQ stretch & ultimately APDJ division is diverting all the trains via NCB...

I hope that has to be done... Siliguri Town Station Area is one the oldest & congested place in Siliguri... Lots of Whole sell market in around this
place... But infrastructure is not adequate... In current trend no new business establishment is coming in this region... All are moving to new outskirts
of Siliguri Metropolitan areas for better infrastructure...
