The new metro rail link will connect Millennium City Centre to Cyber City, bridging the gap between New Gurugram and Old Gurugram. Spanning a total distance of 28.50 km and featuring 27 stations.
Good news for Gurugram residents as Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to lay the foundation stone for the new Metro rail route in Old Gurugram on February 16. This announcement comes shortly after the establishment of the Haryana Metro Rail Corporation (HMRC), which is modeled after the successful Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC). The new metro rail link will connect Millennium City Centre to Cyber City, bridging the gap between New Gurugram and Old Gurugram. Spanning a total distance of 28.50 km and featuring 27 stations, this project is estimated to cost Rs 5452.72 crore. Additionally, a station near Sector 101 will be created to connect the Dwarka Expressway to this metro route. This development is expected to greatly enhance connectivity in Gurugram and provide residents with a convenient and efficient mode of transportation.
With the increasing population and rapid urbanization, it has become crucial to invest in efficient public transportation systems. The Delhi Metro has been a game-changer in the national capital region, and the Haryana government aims to replicate its success in Gurugram. The construction of the metro route will also have a positive impact on the real estate sector in Gurugram. The availability of reliable and convenient public transportation is a key factor that homebuyers consider when choosing a location.
