Designed for speeds of up to 180 kmph, Namo
Bharat is India’s first RRTS. The high-speed corridor will provide connectivity
between Delhi and key urban hubs including Sahibabad, Ghaziabad, Modinagar and
Meerut, significantly reducing travel time.
With this, the entire project now stands complete
and also includes the Meerut Metro. Meerut Metro spans 23 km including 18
km of elevated and 5 km underground stretch. It has 13 stations (Meerut south,
Partapur, Rithani, Shatabdi Nagar, Brahmpuri, Meerut Central, Bhainsali,
Begumpul, MES Colony, Daurli, Meerut North, Modipuram and Modipuram Depot). Of
them, nine stations are elevated, three are underground and one is at grade
station. The RRTS Project involved development of 82.15 km network connecting
Delhi-Ghaziabad-Meerut corridor in the states of Delhi and Uttar Pradesh with
an investment of Rs 302.74 billion.
