Connectivity for more Ghaziabad residents

The plan to extend the existing Metro service from Dilshad Garden to the New Bus Stand in the city has received in-principle approval. The UP chief secretary, officials from Ghaziabad Development Authority (GDA) and Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) had recently met in Lucknow and gave the

green signal for the second phase of Metro expansion in Ghaziabad.
The move was welcomed by Ghaziabad residents as the existing Metro line, which covers Anand Vihar and Vaishali, caters to less than one-sixth of the city's total population.

In 2010, officials had decided against Metro expansion to the bus stand and had proposed Arthala as the last station.

GDA officials said the proposed Metro line from Dilshad Garden to the New Bus stand would cover around 9.41 km. According to previous plans, the link covered only 7.31 km. Compared to the previous estimate of Rs. 815 crore, the extended route will now cost around R990 crore. A decision on the funding pattern will be taken later.

"The entire city and trans-Hindon areas will be benefitted by the new route. GDA has been asked to send a proposal for the funding pattern to share the costs," GDA vice-chairman Santosh Kumar Yadav

अर्थला मेट्रो का विस्तार गाजियाबाद के बस स्टैंड तक हो नोएडा सेक्टर-62 से लालकुआं, महरौली तक ट्रैक पर दौड़े मेट्रो सीआईएसएफ, इंदिरापुरम तक भी आए मेट्रो वैशाली से वसुंधरा होते मोहनगर तक मेट्रो गाजियाबाद। दिल्ली-लखनऊ के बीच कभी हां, कभी ना में फंसे सेकेंड फेज मेट्रो प्रोजेक्ट पर मुख्यमंत्री अखिलेश यादव की ‘हां’ ने गाजियाबाद के लाखों लोगों की बांछें खिला दी हैं। नई सरकार के मूड को देखते हुए अर्थला के बाद नया बस अड्डा, गाजियाबाद तक मेट्रो विस्तार की संभावना बढ़ गई है। इतना ही नहीं, वैशाली मेट्रो के वसुंधरा होते हुए मोहनगर तक लाने का रास्ता भी अब साफ होता नजर आ रहा है। इस रूट पर जहां मेट्रोमैन ई श्रीधरन पहले ही हामी भर चुके हैं, वहीं एनसीआर बोर्ड ने भी सब रीजनल प्लान-2021/2031 में इसे शामिल कर लिया है। उधर, शासन के सकारात्मक रुखसे कुछ ऐसे ही उम्मीदें नोएडा सेक्टर-62 से सीआईएसएफ, लालकुआं, महरौली तक मेट्रो एक्सटेंशन को लेकर भी पैदा हो गई हैं। दरअसल, एनसीआर प्लानिंग बोर्ड ने एनसीआर में जनसंख्या विस्फोट, गाड़ियों की बढ़ती तादाद और कम होती जमीन को देखते हुए हर तरफ मेट्रो विस्तार की सिफारि...
