The National Capital Region Transport Corporation Limited (NCRTC) has proposed a new 60-kilometre-long Namo Bharat train route connecting Gurugram, Faridabad, and Greater Noida. This high-speed corridor, designed to run trains at speeds of up to 180 km/hr (with an operational minimum of 160 km/hr), aims to significantly boost regional connectivity. The plan, currently awaiting approval from the Haryana Mass Rapid Transport Corporation (HMRTC), includes six stationsalong the route. These are proposed at IFFCO Chowk (Sector-29) on the Delhi-Jaipur Highway, Sector-54 on Golf Course Road in Gurugram, Bata Chowk and near Sector 85-86 in Faridabad, between Noida Sectors 142-168, and Surajpur in Greater Noida. Once approved, a Detailed Project Report (DPR) will be prepared.
