Ghaziabad Requests DPR for 16-Km Metro Line Connecting Vaishali to Gokulpuri via Hindon Airport

The Ghaziabad Development Authority has requested the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation to prepare a detailed project report for a new 16-kilometre metro corridor connecting Vaishali to Gokulpuri via Hindon Civil Terminal, Delhi-NCR's second airport. This proposed line, expected to have seven stations, aims to improve connectivity for over five lakh residents in Indirapuram, Vasundhara, and Vaishali. The plan builds on DMRC's Phase V expansion, which initially proposed a shorter route. Hindon Civil Terminal currently lacks direct metro access, with commuters relying on other transport modes for last-mile connectivity.
