Delhi Meerut RRTS

The Delhi-Ghaziabad-Meerut RRTS is the first of three priority corridors planned for implementation in Phase 1 in India, followed by the Delhi-Gurugram-SNB-Alwar and Delhi-Panipat corridors.

The total length of the Delhi-Meerut corridor is 82 km and will be completed in one hour. The first phase will include five stations: Sahibabad, Ghaziabad, Guldhar, Duhai and Duhai Depot. The project is built at a total cost of Rs 30,274 crore. The project also received funding from the Asian Development Bank, the New Development Bank and the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank.

The RapidX train will look like a metro train, but according to documents shared by NCRTC, RRTS is completely different from a metro train. The project is being developed by the National Capital Region Transport Corporation (NCRTC), a joint venture between the Government of India and the governments of Delhi, Haryana, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh.

The RRTS train will have premium class carriages with wider seats, more leg room and hangers.  These trains will be equipped with modern amenities such as automatic doors, integrated air conditioning, storage compartments, separate carriages for women, WIFI, USB charging points and CCTV cameras.

The RRTS train is designed to run at a speed of 180 km/h, making it India’s fastest urban transport system. Each train will have 407 seats arranged in 2X2 size. RRTS can cover 100 km in just one hour, while the metro needs three hours to do the same.
