The TOD Policy for Delhi was notified by the Central Government on 24 December 2020, as a part of the Master Plan of Delhi-2021.
DDA in consultation with major mass transit agencies like Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC), Indian Railways (IR), Delhi Integrated Multi-Modal Transit System (DIMTS), National Capital Region Transport Corporation (NCRTC), and real estate developers of National Capital Region (NCR), proposed modifications in the existing TOD policy.
Apart from the metro and railway stations, the revised TOD policy will also enable node based transit-oriented development around upcoming modes of public transit like BRTS/ LRT/ Metro Lite/ Metro-Neo, making the TOD policy of Delhi future-ready.
