NEW DELHI: A new high-speed railway link expected to be operational by 2023 will cut the journey time from Kashmere Gate in old Delhi to Gurgaon's Cyber City to roughly 30 minutes from the nearly 90 minutes or more that it takes now.
The Rapid Rail Transport System (RRTS) route between Delhi and Alwar, via Gurgaon, was unveiled on Saturday by the NCR Transport Corporation (NCRTC) -a special purpose vehicle set up by the Centre to execute the project.
The Delhi-Alwar route is part of a network of three priority RRTS lines. The Delhi-Alwar route is the longest link, stretching 180km. They are envisaged to bring Haryana, Uttar Pradesh and Rajasthan cities lying at a distance from the capital within a one or two-hour train ride. The other two priority lines are Delhi-Meerut and Delhi-Panipat.
