The completion of the viaduct construction signals a major step forward in realising the RRTS vision, which promises to enhance connectivity and foster economic growth across the region. With the Delhi section nearing completion, attention now turns to the subsequent phases of the project, including the installation of track systems, electrification, and station development.

As construction progresses and the vision of a modern, integrated transit network takes shape, the RRTS project stands as a testament to the power of strategic planning, innovation, and collaboration in building sustainable urban futures.
