30 mins foreclosure of the railway gate

Address:Hyderabad, Andhra Pradesh, 500010

The road connecting kishtamma enclave road and old alwal is crossed by a railway gate. Unfortunately the gate is closed 20-30 mins before the train is passed. People crossing the gate and waiting near the gate are facing horrible time. Many times the station has been asked but unfortunately it is never followed. Recently my father met with a severe chest pain and we couldn't take him to hospital on time. Please find this as an important issue...
