Delhi metro extends its reach

NEW DELHI: The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) is likely to open three new corridors with a combined length of nearly 50 km are likely to come in action, which will also mark the completion of the Metro’s Phase-III project, by the end of December 2018. 

The most awaited corridor is the 9.7 km Lajpat Nagar to Mayur Vihar Pocket-1 section of Pink Line (Majlis Park-Shiv Vihar). The opening of this section will nearly complete the 59 km Pink Line, except for a 1.4 km missing link between Mayur Vihar Pocket-1 and Trilokpuri. 

The other two corridors that are likely to open by the end of this year, are the 9.4km Dilshad Garden-New Bus Adda extension of Red Line (Dilshad Garden-Rithala)and the 29.7 km Aqua Line of Noida Metro Rail Corporation (NMRC), which will connect Noida to Greater Noida.
