Delhi-Meerut Rapid Rail 'Priority Section' To Start In Weeks. Details HereThe 17-km Sahibabad-Duhai Depot 'priority section' of the Delhi-Ghaziabad-Meerut Rapid Rail or RRTS project will be commissioned within a few weeks, National Capital Region Transport Corporation (NCRTC) Director Vinay Kumar Singh said today.
This is a significant breakthrough in terms of high-quality transit services in the country, the official said while addressing a workshop here on transit oriented development.
"We are very close to a transformational transit project very soon. The 17-km priority section of the RRTS (Regional Rapid Transit System) project will be commissioned within a few weeks," Mr Singh said.
"This is a significant breakthrough in terms of high-quality transit services in the country. This is the first time we will be having fast inter-city commuter trains running across the National Capital Region," the director said.
The semi-high-speed regional rail service named 'RAPIDX' by the NCRTC, is a joint venture company of the Centre with the governments of Delhi, Haryana, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh.
The NCRTC aims to commission the entire 82-km Delhi-Ghaziabad-Meerut stretch for the public by 2025.
