With the PIB\u2019s clearance, the long-pending projects have now gained momentum, marking an important step towards improving travel efficiency across the National Capital Region (NCR). The approval aligns with the Centre\u2019s renewed push for seamless connectivity within one of India\u2019s busiest urban clusters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Project Breakdown and Costs<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs, the 93-km Sarai Kale Khan\u2013Bawal corridor is projected to cost \u20b932,000 crore. The second corridor, running 136 km between Sarai Kale Khan and Karnal, is estimated at \u20b933,000 crore. The PIB has also advised Delhi and Haryana to explore value capture financing (VCF), a model that leverages rising land values around transport corridors to fund infrastructure projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Route Details: Delhi to Bawal<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Delhi\u2013Bawal RRTS corridor begins at Sarai Kale Khan and moves through key industrial zones in south Haryana, including Manesar and Bawal. Phase one (Delhi to SNB Urban Complex) spans around 107 km with 16 stations, running largely along the NH-8 alignment. Once fully extended, the route is expected to feature about 22 stations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Route Details: Delhi to Karnal<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The second corridor also originates from Sarai Kale Khan, extending northward via Sonipat and Panipat before terminating at Karnal. The 136.3 km alignment has been divided into three sections for tendering: Sarai Kale Khan\u2013Alipur, Alipur\u2013Samalkha, and Samalkha\u2013Karnal New ISBT. With the detailed project report already prepared, this corridor is closer to on-ground progress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Transit-Oriented Development Push<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Centre has urged participating states to adopt transit-oriented development (TOD) and establish Urban Metropolitan Transport Authorities (UMTAs). These measures aim to integrate urban planning with high-capacity transit systems, ensuring sustainable, compact, and efficiently connected growth along the corridors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>A Future-Ready NCR<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>With PM Narendra Modi emphasizing unified governance across NCR for smoother development, the RRTS expansion is poised to transform regional mobility. Once operational, these corridors will ease traffic congestion, reduce travel time, and strengthen connectivity between major residential and industrial hubs\u2014reshaping the NCR\u2019s mobility landscape for decades to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a significant development for regional mobility, the Public Investment Board (PIB) has approved two new Namo Bharat (RRTS) corridors linking Delhi to Gurgaon, Rewari, Sonipat, Panipat, and Karnal.
