Officials of the Ghaziabad development authority (GDA) said on Friday that they have written to the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) asking them to prepare a feasibility report for extending the Metro’s Red Line from its last metro station at New Bus Adda to Ghaziabad railway station. The only obstacle standing in the way of the proposed route is the Thakurdwara flyover, which is constructed on the median of Grand Trunk (GT) Road, said officials.
The Red Line of the DMRC terminates at New Bus Adda metro station in Ghaziabad. Officials said they want to improve the connectivity of the last station on the Red Line with the Ghaziabad railway station, which is proposed for redevelopment and will unfold into a model city centre station at an estimated cost of about ₹1,000 crore.
