Noida Metro Ridership Rises Over 20% After Sector 51-52 Skywalk Opens
Noida Metro's Aqua Line ridership has increased by over 20% since the opening of the 400-meter air-conditioned skywalk connecting Sector 51 and Sector 52 stations on August 28. The skywalk, equipped with travelators, allows commuters to transfer between the Aqua Line and Delhi Metro's Blue Line without buying new tickets, easing a previously one-kilometer walk. The project faced delays due to design changes and environmental restrictions but has significantly improved commuter convenience and daily passenger numbers.
