The envisioned light metro holds distinctive features that set it apart. With a projected speed of 40 kilometres per hour, it strikes a balance between efficiency and accessibility. This innovative approach is tailored to address the specific requirements of Noida, optimizing travel time for commuters while ensuring a seamless link to the Jewel Airport.

Unlike traditional metro systems, the light metro is designed to be nimble and adaptable to urban landscapes. Its potential integration with existing transportation networks positions it as a versatile solution for the city's evolving infrastructure demands. The introduction of the light metro aligns with the broader vision of facilitating efficient and sustainable transportation options for Noida residents.

The proposed project is not only a response to the imminent operationalization of Jewel Airport but also a strategic move to cater to the city's anticipated growth. As Noida continues to expand, the light metro emerges as a forward-looking solution, promising to be a vital component in the region's journey towards comprehensive and modernised urban connectivity.
