Namo Bharat Set To Roll In Delhi: Trial Runs Begin This November
The construction of the Anand Vihar RRTS station is nearing completion, with final touches being applied. Currently, a 42-km segment from Meerut South to Sahibabad is operational. National Capital Region Transport Corporation (NCRTC) officials have informed that trial runs on the 6.5-km stretch from Sahibabad to Anand Vihar are set to begin in November. As a major transit hub, Anand Vihar will seamlessly integrate the RRTS with Delhi Metro, Indian Railways, and various city and intercity bus networks. The Delhi section of the Delhi-Ghaziabad-Meerut RRTS corridor includes a 9-km elevated viaduct and a 5-km underground section. The 14-km section in Delhi includes the nearly finished RRTS stations at Sarai Kale Khan, New Ashok Nagar, and Anand Vihar. However, the fourth station in Delhi, Jangpura, along with a stabling yard, will be developed later. Anand Vihar will feature the only underground RRTS station, located one level below ground. The Anand Vihar RRTS station features dedicated vehicle pick-up/drop-off points and is connected to Chaudhary Charan Singh Marg via three bridges over the Ghazipur drain. The 10-meter-wide right bridge will serve as the vehicle entry point for taxis and private vehicles, the 13-meter-wide left bridge will act as the exit route, and the 5-meter-wide middle bridge will be reserved for pedestrian movement within the station.
