    Structure and amenities

    The station has rooftop solar panels installed by the Indian railways, along with various railway
    stations and service buildings in the country, as a part of sourcing 500 MW solar energy.[3][4]
    Recently, Indian Railway refurbished the station at a cost of around 15 crore.[2] Under the
    modernization programme, the station entrance, waiting hall, retiring rooms, and platforms were
    renovated.[2] Provisions for washable aprons have also been added.[2] Provisions for
    refreshments room were provided for travellers to get beverages at any time.[2]

    The station caters to an average of 12,500 passengers daily,[2] and has several features to help
    with accessibility. There are two lifts, a footbridge, and escalators. Passenger information
    displays and signage are also available,[2] as well as butterfly-type shelters to allow the
    passengers to sit and wait until the scheduled arrival of trains.[2] In addition to these, the station
    building and some of the walls have been painted and beautified to display the art and culture of
    the local place.[2]

    The outer part of the railway station is also being modernized. It includes the shifting of
    substation, water tank catering to railway station needs, and postal service to decongest the
    railway station for movement of vehicles coming to and going from station.[2] Construction of
    tensile modelled structures for auto rickshaw parking, car parking, pick up and drop off
    passengers place, etc. is in progress.[2] Upgrades for the drainage system is also in progress to
    create a smooth flow of water during wet conditions.[2] Additional provisions include renovating
    the footpath area and the space deck portico.[2]

    These renovations and modifications have made the Kurnool Railway station look alike and
    upgraded to airport standards.
