Prime Minister to inaugurate Badarpur-Faridabad Metro Rail service on Sept 6
Faridabad: The metro is going to make in-roads to the satellite city of Faridabad on September 6 with Prime Minister Narendra Modi likely to inaugurate the much-awaited Badarpur-Faridabad corridor.
The fully elevated service, an extension of ITO-Badarpur line, will cover nine stations of Sarai, NHPC Chowk, Mewala Maharajpur, Sector 28, Badkal Mor, Old Faridabad, Neelam Chowk Ajronda, Bata Chowk and Escorts Mujesar.
The Delhi Metro Railway Corporation (DMRC) had conducted trial runs on the corridor, covering a distance of 13.87 km, in April this year.
According to official estimates, presently the average ridership on it (Line-6) stands at around 1.92 lakh per day. Once fully operational, Line 6 will span from Kashmere Gate to Escorts Mujesar having a length of 43.4 km, with a total of 32 stations including five interchange stations, namely Kashmere Gate, Mandi House, Central Secretariat, Lajpat Nagar and Kalkaji Mandir.
DMRC had made its foray into Haryana five years ago and with this project, the DMRC will further spread its operations in the neighbouring State.
