In a move that could delay the proposed 107km Rapid Rail Transport System (RRTS) project between Delhi, Gurugram and Behror, the National Capital Region Transport Corporation (NCRTC), the agency constructing the corridor, has moved a proposal to change the alignment of the Gurugram-SNB section to take it along the Delhi-Gurgaon Expressway, officials in the know of the matter said.
According to the proposed plan, the alignment will be from Aerocity to Rajiv Chowk via Cyber City along the Delhi-Gurgaon Expressway instead of the earlier alignment which passed through Kapashera, Udyog Vihar, Atul Kataria Chowk, Maharana Pratap Chowk, Signature Tower and Rajiv Chowk.
This new alignment, if approved, is likely to benefit a large population living along the Old Delhi-Gurgaon Road and in Old Gurugram, which has been waiting for both the Metro and Rapid Rail projects since the past several years.
