Rohtak in Haryana gets RRTS corridor’s connectivity

A high-speed rail corridor will connect Delhi with Rohtak so that passengers traveling from Delhi to Rohtak will benefit significantly from this rapid rail corridor. The rapid rail transit system (RRTS) will be built between Delhi and Rohtak via Bahadurgarh and Sampala. The Central government has identified 8 corridors for high-speed RRTS linking major towns in the National Capital Region (NCR) with Delhi. In the first phase, the RRTS projects including Delhi-Meerut, Delhi-Alwar and Delhi-Panipat were taken up. And 8 other RRTS corridors are part of the Functional Plan on Transport for National Capital Region (NCR) – 2032 prepared by the NCR Planning Board (NCRPB).

As per the latest updates, the corridors will begin from Sarai Kale Khan in New Delhi and will also be seamlessly integrated with other modes of transport such as Delhi Metro Rail Stations, Inter-State Bus Terminals, Airports and Railway Stations. After the first phase, the second phase of the corridor will begin which includes Delhi Rohtak, Delhi-Palwal, Ghaziabad-Khurja, Ghaziabad-Hapur and Delhi-Baraut. The approval for the Delhi-Bahadurgarh-Rohtak RRT corridor was granted last December. Currently, the preparation of the Detail Project Report (DPR) of the Rapid Rail Corridor is underway and the Haryana government has started preparing this DPR in association with the National Capital Region Transport Corporation (NCRTC).
