DMRC's 4th Phase Expansion Progress

The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) is making substantial strides in its Phase 4 expansion, with more than 50% of the work completed across all three corridors. This ambitious project aims to enhance Delhi's metro connectivity, easing commuter traffic and reducing pollution in the national capital region. As one of India's most extensive urban transportation initiatives, Phase 4 spans 61.679 kilometers and includes three corridors: Aerocity to Tughlakabad, Janakpuri West to R.K. Ashram Marg, and Maujpur to Mukundpur.

The Aerocity to Tughlakabad corridor, covering 20.20 kilometers, will link important areas like Vasant Kunj and Munirka to key locations in South Delhi. Meanwhile, the Janakpuri West to R.K. Ashram Marg line, spanning 28.92 kilometers, will significantly improve connectivity on the West-East axis of Delhi, easing travel for thousands of daily commuters. The Maujpur to Mukundpur corridor, extending over 12.569 kilometers, promises enhanced connectivity between the northeastern and northern parts of Delhi.

DMRC's Phase 4 expansion is not only set to improve metro connectivity but also aims to boost local economies along these corridors by facilitating easier access to commercial and residential hubs. The project's progress marks a crucial step forward in Delhi's efforts to modernize its public transport infrastructure, aligning with broader sustainability goals and reducing reliance on private vehicles.

Key highlights of the Phase 4 expansion include advanced signaling systems, elevated viaducts, and state-of-the-art metro stations designed to accommodate future passenger growth. The completion of over half of the project's construction underscores DMRC's commitment to delivering efficient and eco-friendly urban transportation solutions. Once fully operational, Phase 4 is expected to cater to a significant increase in daily ridership, further cementing Delhi Metro's status as a model for urban transit systems in India.

In conclusion, DMRC's ongoing progress on Phase 4 underscores its pivotal role in transforming Delhi's transportation landscape. As construction advances, the metro's expanded reach will not only alleviate traffic congestion but also promote sustainable urban development across the national capital region.
