Prime Minister Narendra Modi laid the foundation stone for the long-awaited Gurugram Metro Rail Project from Rewari on February 16, alongside initiating various other state projects like a 750-bedded AIIMS Rewari at Majra Bhalkhi village. This project will be developed at a cost of about Rs 5,450 crore and will be connecting the old city to the new sectors along SPR and NPR.<figure class="image"><img src="https://www.signatureglobal.in/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/Industry-News-8-upd.jpg" alt=""></figure>The foundation for the 28.5-KM long metro line – extending the DMRC line from the Huda City Centre to Sohna Road, NH-48 to Old Gurugram, Dwarka Expressway to terminate at Cyber City – will suffice to transform the needs of the entire Gurugram population. It will revolutionize the city's daily commuting, significantly improving connectivity between NCR cities, facilitating smoother travel for commuters, and reducing travel time.As per the project’s detailed report, the stations on the route are:Huda City Centre, sector 45, Cyber Park, sector 47, Subhash Chowk, sector 48, 72 A, Hero Honda chowk, Udyog Vihar 6, sector 10, 37, Basai, sector 9, 7, 4, and 5, Ashok Vihar, sector 3, Bajghera road, Palam Vihar Extension, Palam Vihar, sector 23 A, 22, Udyog Vihar 4, Udyog Vihar 5 and Cyber City.Enhanced connectivity will undoubtedly attract more businesses and investment to Gurugram, fueling its economic development and enhancing its appeal for both residents and businesses. Furthermore, the implementation of an efficient metro system could alleviate traffic congestion, a chronic problem stemming from rapid urbanization and population growth. This reduction in traffic congestion would also result in lower pollution levels, enhancing air quality and fostering a healthier living environment for residents.As one of India's major rapidly growing urban centers, Gurugram stands to benefit substantially from this development, as do its residents in terms of last-mile connectivity. To date, metro facilities are available only on the Yellow line of Delhi, terminating at Huda City Centre – a large part of the city struggles hard to reach this or other metro stations to utilize this facility for travel to and from Delhi and other NCR cities. Once extended throughout the old city of Gurugram, a densely populated area, it will prove to be a boon to the residents, indeed.There is no doubt that the metro is the safest and fastest mode of transport, widely used by the masses, and it is the lifeline of the NCR. Currently, the Delhi metro is limited to a five-kilometer length with five metro stations – Guru Dronacharya, Sikandarpur, MG Road, Iffco Chowk, and Huda City Centre – since 2008-09.Improved connectivity can lead to the development of new commercial hubs and residential areas along the metro corridor, potentially boosting property values and stimulating real estate development. <a href="https://www.signatureglobal.in/residential/premium/">Signature Global</a> - a leading real estate promoter has welcomed the move, appreciating the project as a milestone achievement and as the ultimate need of the time in the rapidly growing city of Gurugram, which is a showcase city of the country.
