Haryana Government recently approved two Regional Rapid Transit System (RRTS) corridors, namely the Delhi Alwar RRTS and Delhi Panipat corridors. This development marks a significant step forward in enhancing regional connectivity and improving transportation infrastructure in the National Capital Region (NCR).
Delhi Alwar RRTS Project Overview
The RRTS project aims to establish a high-speed rail corridor between Delhi, Gurgaon, Rewari and Alwar, covering a distance of approximately 164 kilometres. It will be an integrated public transportation system, designed to provide fast, reliable, and comfortable travel for commuters.
The approval of the two RRTS projects is a significant achievement for the NCR. The RRTS will provide a much-needed boost to the NCR’s economy and will help to improve the quality of life for millions of people in the region.
The RRTS trains will be high-speed, semi-high-speed, or regional trains, depending on the section of the corridor. These trains will have advanced features like air-conditioning, comfortable seating, and dedicated spaces for differently-abled passengers.
