Gurugram Metro To Add Rs 4.5 Billion Spur To Railway Station

15 Oct 2025 CW Team

Once approved, the spur will be incorporated into the Phase 2 tender of the Gurugram Metro project, which is aimed at improving connectivity between new and old Gurugram.

Earlier, metro authorities had proposed linking Sector 5 Metro Station to the railway station through a skywalk with escalators, but in November 2024, the state government opted for a dedicated spur line instead.

According to a report by Rail India Technical and Economic Service (RITES), the construction cost of the extension is estimated at Rs 4.5 billion. Officials said the new spur is expected to boost ridership, as the Gurugram Railway Station serves a large number of intra-city commuters.

The GMRL is overseeing the Gurugram Metro project, which will form a loop line connecting new and old Gurugram, with Sector 5 Station located approximately 2 km from the railway station. Following the revised plan, RITES was commissioned to conduct a study and prepare the Detailed Project Report (DPR).

As per the survey, the proposed railway station metro terminal will require 1,069 sq. metres of land, including 419 sq. m of government land, 446 sq. m of private land, and 204 sq. m of railway property for entry and exit points. Additionally, 605 sq. m of land will be required at Sector 5 Station.

A senior government official said, “The proposal will be placed before the GMRL board for approval and subsequently forwarded to the Haryana government and the Union Ministry for final approval.”

Meanwhile, the Haryana Mass Rapid Transport Corporation (HMRTC) is preparing a DPR for the Bhondsi–Gurugram Railway Station line. However, once the Sector 5 spur becomes operational, the Bhondsi line will terminate at Sector 5.

A GMRL official confirmed that the proposal was discussed at a meeting on 9 November, adding that an interchange station is likely to be developed at Sector 5. The first phase of the Gurugram Metro, from Millennium City Centre to Sector 9, is already under construction, while the Phase 2 tender, extending from Sector 9 to Cyber Hub, is currently being finalised.

The new metro spur is expected to enhance last-mile connectivity, ease congestion, and strengthen Gurugram’s position as a key urban mobility hub in the National Capital Region.

A 1.8 km metro spur connecting Sector 5 to the Gurugram Railway Station has been finalised and will soon be presented before the Gurugram Metro Rail Limited (GMRL) for consideration. Following internal approval, the proposal will be sent to the Haryana government and the Union Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs for final clearance, officials said.
