Delhi-Meerut RRTS Corridor
The Delhi-Meerut Regional Rapid Transit System (RRTS) Corridor is an 82.15 km semi-high speed rail line that connects Delhi, Ghaziabad, and Meerut. The corridor, which began commercial operations on October 21, 2023, aims to provide a faster, more efficient mode of transportation, reducing travel time and congestion. The project, financed in part by a $250 million loan from the Asian Development Bank, is expected to stimulate economic growth, improve connectivity, and boost real estate development in the region. As of December 2023, trial runs have begun on the Duhai-Modi Nagar South stretch, with the next section, Duhai-Meerut South, set to open soon. The entire corridor is expected to be fully operational by June 2025.
