The DMRC said on Tuesday that the proposed Rithala-Narela corridor of the network may possibly be extended up to Kundli in Haryana to provide additional connectivity to the neighbouring state.
If approved, this will be Delhi Metro’s fourth expansion into Haryana after the Yellow Line (Gurugram), Violet Line (Faridabad), and Green Line (Bahadurgarh), the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) said in a statement. This corridor is being planned as an extension of the presently operational Shaheed Sthal-Rithala corridor of the Red Line.
In fact, this may be the Delhi Metro’s first-ever corridor to connect Haryana and Uttar Pradesh via Delhi. Initially, smaller stations with platform lengths accommodating four coach trains are proposed to meet the initial traffic demand, with a provision for future expansion to accommodate eight coach trains, officials said. If approved, the entire corridor shall be 27.319 km, comprising 22 stations. While 26.339 km of the span will be elevated, about 0.89 km will be at grade. Of the 22 stations, 21 will be elevated and one will be at grade, the DMRC said.
