The Regional Rapid Transit System (RRTS), the major infrastructure project is being developed by the National Capital Region Transport Corporation (NCRTC).

With a new Regional Rapid Transit System (RRTS) connecting Gurugram and Greater Noida, the National Capital Region (NCR) is preparing for a significant transit boost. With a crucial stop at Bata Chowk in Faridabad, the 60-kilometer line will link Rajiv Chowk in Gurugram with Noida Sector-142 and Surajpur in Greater Noida. 

This section starts in Gurugram at Rajiv Chowk, travels to Noida Sector-142 and Surajpur in Greater Noida, and then passes through Bata Chowk in Faridabad.

The new RRTS line will significantly improve connectivity between Noida and Gurugram, two of the busiest cities in the National Capital Region. In addition to improving commuter comfort and convenience, this project seeks to reduce travel times, reduce traffic on the roadways, and support regional economic integration.

The National Capital Region Transport Corporation (NCRTC) is working on the largest infrastructure project, the RRTS.

Key cities in the Delhi-NCR, such as Delhi, Meerut, Ghaziabad, and Alwar, will be connected by the new RRTS, which is intended to provide a quick, effective, and eco-friendly mode of transportation. The project solves the long-standing need for a direct and dependable transit link between two of India's most important economic and technological hubs by adding the Noida-Gurugram route to this network. In addition to fostering regional connectivity and economic growth, this new corridor is expected to greatly reduce traffic congestion.

According to the India Today report, the government is expediting the required approvals and permissions while the detailed project report (DPR) for the RRTS corridor is underway. The corridor should be finished in four to five years after development begins.
