If you are a regular commuter on the Delhi Metro, you love the service and know its the lifeline of Delhi. So here’s Delhi metro’s new year gift to you. By the end of this month – December 2018, three new corridors – with a combined length of nearly 50 Km are likely to open. This marks the completion of the metros Phase – III project.
Of these, the most eagerly awaited corridor is the 9.7 Km Lajpat Nagar to Mayur Vihar Pocket-1 section of Pink Line. The opening of this section will nearly complete the 59 Km Pink Line. It will bring the heart of South Delhi and it’s popular markets such as Lajpat Nagar, Sarojini Nagar and INA closer to the East Delhi.
This corridor will not only bring East closer to the South, but also provide the much needed connectivity to the Hazrat Nizamuddin railway station, the third busiest station in the city. Apart from Lajpat Nagar, this section will also have an interchange facility at Mayur Vihar 1, connecting the Pink Line and Blue Line. The two stations will be linked through a 63m foot overbridge.
The other two corridors that are likely to open this month are the 9.4 Km Dilshad Garden-New Bus Adda extension of the Red Line and the 29.7 Km Aqua Line of the Noida Metro Rail Corporation, which will connect Noida to Greater Noida.
