At Aligarh Junction Station a branch line Bareilly-Aligarh terminates. The trains coming from Howrah side and going to Harduaganj/Bareilly cross Howrah-New Delhi main route, which is busiest section of Indian Railways.  Due to heavy traffic there is no path available for surface crossing of loaded goods trains coming from Howrah side and going to Harduaganj/Bareilly.  This results into heavy detention of trains at Aligarh Junction.  This location has become a bottleneck and is affecting the train working badly causing delays and detentions and also reducing the wagon turn round.
