DMRC plans Blue Line extension in Ghaziabad

The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation has decided to extend Blue Line corridor from Vaishali to Mohan Nagar via Sahibabad, and the proposal has been approved by the Ghaziabad Development Authority (GDA). A DPR is currently being considered by DMRC. The Vaishali to Mohan Nagar section will provide a direct link to central areas of Delhi as Vaishali has connectivity to the Yamuna Bank station of the Delhi Metro Blue Line. This will also lead to easy access of the Dwarka Sector-21-Noida Electronic City corridor. Additionally, commuters from the Sahibabad area will also be able to take the Delhi Metro Blue Line at the Mohan Nagar station interchange. The extension will prove to be cost-effective and will also be beneficial in terms of ridership. The extended corridor will be constructed on the median of the Link Road, i.e., from Mohan Nagar to Anand Vihar and will not require any acquisition of private land.
