The Centre is likely to finalise soon the fare structure of the upcoming Rapidx trains and its launch date for the priority section, National Capital Region Transport Corporation (NCRTC) officials aware of the matter said on Tuesday.
Last month, NCRTC sent a proposal to the ministry of housing and urban affairs outlining the fare structure, the officials said.
While a fixed date for the opening of the 17km priority section of the Rapid Rail Transport System (RRTS) in Ghaziabad is yet to be officially announced, officials said that preparation are in the final phase for a June-end launch, as has been suggested by Uttar Pradesh chief minister Yogi Adityanath at several political rallies last month.
