The Uttar Pradesh government has given the approval for the construction of RRTS corridor from from Ghaziabad to Noida International Airport in Jewar at an estimated cost of Rs 1,600 Crore.

The entire web of NCR region that includes NOIDA, Greater Noida, Delhi, Meerut, etc will be covered in this project.

The Uttar Pradesh government has directed NCRTC to present a DPR for the project within two months.

Any progress in the project can be expected only once the DPR has been finalised.

The UP government had asked NCRTC to explore a possible RRTS corridor from Delhi’s Sarai Kale Khan via DND Flyway, Noida Expressway and Yamuna Expressway to the Greenfield airport and another through Greater Noida West and Greater Noida City’s central part to the airport in Jewar.

The project is expected to operationalise by the year 2030, if everything goes as planned.
