The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) recently announced the construction of a new interchange hub at the RK Ashram Marg metro station which will provide a shorter route from central to north Delhi.

According to the DMRC, the RK Ashram Marg station on the Blue Line will be connected to the metro station of the same name on the Magenta Line. The interchange facility will provide a convenient mode of transit and help in decongesting the busy Blue Line.

The new underground station will be constructed adjacent to the existing elevated station. This interchange will provide a convenient mode of transit and will help in decongesting the busy Blue Line. At present, the DMRC is doing construction work on 65.1 km of phase-IV priority corridors, which comprise Janakpuri West to RK Ashram Marg (28.92 km), Majlis Park to Maujpur (12.55 km) — extensions of the already operational Magenta Line and Pink Line — and Tughalakabad to Aerocity (23.62 km) which has been christened 'Silver Line'.

The Silver Line will connect the Violet Line and Airport Line. DMRC is handling operations and maintenance of over 390 km of network, comprising 286 metro stations, including the Rapid Metro in Gurugram and Aqua Line in Greater Noida.
