Haryana fixes two metro projects on radar

Haryana Metro Project
In order to make available trouble- free transport facilities to the masses in the NCR region, the Haryana government has directed Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) to conduct a feasibility study for three routes on which it proposes to build new Metro lines. They included two from Huda City Centre to old Gurgaon and old Faridabad, respectively, and another from Narela in Delhi to Kundli in Sonipat district. The feasibility study was ordered after a high-level meeting spearheaded by the chief minister, recently held in Chandigarh. The feasibility report, which is likely to be completed by September, will be followed by a Detailed Project Report (DPR) before the government finalizes the logistics, funding and construction modes, said official sources, adding that yet another proposed Metro corridor, from Dwarka Sector 21 to Iffco Chowk, is also in the pipeline. As a matter of fact, the state government wants both DMRC and Rapid Metro representatives to be present so that both networks can be integrated to form the best route possible to connect Dwarka and Gurgaon, they claimed.
