Now you can travel from Noida International Airport to Delhi Aerocity in just 66 minutes as the 72-km-long Rapid Rail-Metro corridor will link Ghaziabad RRTS station with NIA in Jewar. The project is expected to be finished in 5 years and then a super-fast rapid rail will take you from the new Noida International Airport (NIA) to Delhi’s Sarai Kale Khan in less than an hour.

The rapid rail service will be developed by the 72-km-long Rapid Rail-Metro corridor, connecting the Ghaziabad RRTS station with the NIA in Jewar.

The National Capital Region Transport Corporation (NCRTC) officials have submitted a revised project report (DPR) to the Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA).

Dr Arun Vir Singh, CEO of the Yamuna Authority, stated that the DPR is under review by the Uttar Pradesh Cabinet, with approval expected soon, as per an Indian Express report.

The estimated cost of the Rapid Rail-Metro Corridor is Rs 20,637 crore, with a construction timeline of five years.

The Rapid Rail-Metro Corridor will link the Delhi-Meerut RRTS at Ghaziabad, the Aqua Line Metro at Char Murti Chowk, and the Noida Airport at the Ground Transport Centre (GTC).

The Rapid Rail-Metro Corridor will comprise 22 stations, including 11 RRTS-cum-Metro stations and 11 Metro stations, with provisions for 13 new stations.

Officials added that the majority of the corridor will be elevated, with the final station at the NIA being underground.

Rapid Rail-Metro Corridor will provide two types of service like fast RRTS service with speeds up to 114 km/h, stopping at limited stations, and a metro service with speeds of 46 km/h, pausing at all stations.

While the fast RRTS service will offer a commuting time of 56 minutes to Sarai Kale Khan, 66 minutes to Delhi Aerocity, 37 minutes to Ghaziabad, and 72 minutes to Meerut, and the normal RRTS service, operating at 84 km/h, will take an extra 13 minutes on each route.

Besides this, the Rapid Rail-Metro Corridor will boast of a 10-km extension of the Aqua Line Metro between Char Murti Chowk and Knowledge Park V and have a proposed light rail transit between NIA and YEIDA Sector 21/Film City.

This upcoming corridor is anticipated to manage approximately 326,000 daily passengers.
