The project was likely to be concluded by 2023. Due to Covid-19, the project is expected to miss its 2025 goal. In Phase-4 of Delhi Metro, three interchange stations will emerge as part of the first corridor work – Peeragarhi (Green Line), Madhuban Chowk (Red Line) and Haiderpur Badli Mor (Yellow Line).

Also, the corridor of Janakpuri West-RK Ashram Marg will have three more interchange facilities at Majlis Park (Pink Line), RK Ashram Marg (Blue line) and Azadpur (Yellow Line).
