02 Apr 2024 CW Team

The National Capital Region Transport Corporation (NCRTC) has announced that a crucial footbridge connecting Sarai Kale Khan RRTS (Regional Rapid Transit System) station with the Nizamuddin railway station in Delhi will be completed by May. This footbridge is a significant part of the Delhi-Ghaziabad-Meerut RRTS corridor infrastructure. Once operational, it will greatly enhance connectivity and ease the transfer of passengers between the RRTS and conventional railway networks.

The construction of this footbridge is a key milestone in the development of the RRTS corridor, which aims to revolutionize public transportation in the region. It will provide commuters with seamless access to multiple modes of transportation, facilitating smoother and more efficient travel experiences.

The RRTS corridor between Delhi, Ghaziabad, and Meerut is a flagship infrastructure project designed to address the growing transportation needs of the National Capital Region. By integrating various modes of transportation and reducing travel time between major urban centers, it is expected to significantly alleviate traffic congestion and air pollution while improving overall connectivity and accessibility.

NCRTC has been working diligently to ensure the timely completion of the project despite challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic and other logistical constraints. The upcoming completion of the footbridge marks another step forward in the realization of this ambitious infrastructure initiative.

Once operational, the Delhi-Ghaziabad-Meerut RRTS corridor, along with the newly constructed footbridge, will not only provide commuters with faster and more convenient travel options but also contribute to the sustainable development of the region by promoting the use of public transportation and reducing reliance on private vehicles.
