1. Introduction
1.1. Background
The National Capital Region (NCR) is a planning region comprising the entire National
Capital Territory of Delhi and the parts of the neighbouring states of Haryana, Uttar
Pradesh and Rajasthan. With the total area of the region as 33,578 km2
(12,965 sq mi), it is one of the world's largest urban agglomerations.
The constituent areas of the NCR are given below:
(i) National Capital Territory (NCT) Delhi (4.4 per cent of NCR area);
(ii) Haryana Sub-region – Faridabad, Gurgaon, Rohtak, Sonepat, Rewari, Jhajjar,
Mewat and Panipat districts of Haryana (40.0 per cent of NCR area);
(iii) Rajasthan Sub-region – Alwar district of Rajasthan (23.3 per cent of NCR
area);
(iv) Uttar Pradesh Sub-region – Meerut, Ghaziabad, Gautam Buddha Nagar,
Bulandshahar and Baghpat districts of UP (32.3 per cent of NCR area)
The map of the constituent areas of NCR is given at Figure 1.1.
The total population of the region was about 37.1 million (2001). As per the Regional
Plan 2021 (RP21), it is estimated to grow to 48.6 million by 2011 and 64.1 million by
2021. Thus the region has not only very high concentration of the people but is also
a fast growing economic hub.

The central core of the NCR i.e. NCT Delhi has been experiencing rapid and explosive
growth in terms of population. The population has increased from 9.3 million in 1991
to 13.7 million in 2001. It is estimated that it will grow to 23 million by the year 2021.
This rapid growth of population is coupled with high growth in economic activities
and therefore transport demand is also increasing. The public transport system is
inadequate to cater to the increased demand and consequently, there has been an
explosive growth of private vehicle population in Delhi. This has led to the
congestion on the roads, which in turn has led to high consumption of fossil fuel and
consequent increase in environment pollution.
The road network in Delhi essentially exhibits “Radial Corridor” pattern. There are
nine corridors which form vital network system of transport in the region. It
comprises national highways, state highways, major and other district roads. The
primary NH system of five roads converges into Delhi (NH-1, 2, 8, 10 & 24) and two
(NH-58 & 91) at the Ghaziabad. One State Highway (SH 14) also converges at Delhi.
Other NHs i.e. NH 71, NH 71-A, NH 93 and NH 119 and State Highways also serve in
strengthening the regional road network.
The road network of the region is shown at Figure 1.2.
The rail network in NCR shows the similar “Radial Corridor” pattern with eight Broad
Gauge railway lines converging towards Delhi. The rail network has two special
identified lines known as the Goods Avoiding Line (GAL) and Delhi Avoiding Line
(DAL). The GAL provides a direct entry into New Delhi from Ghaziabad avoiding Delhi
Railway Station, The DAL provides a direct entry into the Delhi - Ambala section from
Tughlaqabad.
The rail network of NCR is shown at Figure 1.3.

The Regional Plan 2021 prepared by NCR Planning Board highlighted the need for
better integrated connectivity and accessibility in the region through development of
Regional Rapid Transit System (RRTS) which would connect NCT Delhi with the rest
of the region on lines of an earlier study titled “Identification of Rail Projects for
commuter travel in National Capital Region and Delhi” which was commissioned by
Northern Railways. The main aim of the study was to wean away the commuters
from road based system to an optimal multimodal mass transport system. The study
recommended twenty eight railway projects for commuter travel in NCT Delhi and
National Capital Region to be implemented in three phases. The estimated cost of
phase I was Rs. 58 billion (1998 prices). The study also recommended to integrate
these corridors with the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) network and road
based mass transport system. This report has been reviewed in the literature review
section.
In 2001, NCR Planning Board identified three corridors for the implementation of
“Integrated Rail cum Bus Transit (IRBT) System” on priority. These three corridors
are:
a) Shahdara-Ghaziabad (14.92 km),
b) Sahibabad-Minto Bridge (17.36 km),
c) Trinagar-Gurgaon (30.53 km)
A detailed techno-economic feasibility study for these corridors was taken up. The
study for Trinagar-Gurgaon corridor has been reviewed in literature review section.
Another study was commissioned by NCR Planning Board to prepare an “Integrated
Transportation Plan for National Capital Region”. The draft report of the study
identified the following eight Regional Rapid Transit System (RRTS) corridors to be
implemented in NCR for the movement of commuters.
1. Delhi – Sonipat - Panipat
2. Delhi – Loni - Baghpat
3. Delhi – Ghaziabad - Meerut

4. Ghaziabad - Hapur
5. Ghaziabad - Bulandshahr
6. Delhi – Faridabad - Palwal
7. Delhi – Gurgaon - Rewari
8. Delhi – Rohtak
This report has also been reviewed in literature review section.
NCR Planning Board has now decided to implement RRTS on the following three
corridors on priority.
1 Delhi-Gurgaon-Rewari-Alwar
2 Delhi-Sonipat-Panipat and
3 Delhi-Ghaziabad-Meerut
The Ministry of Urban Development, Govt. of India vide its letter no. K-
14011/03/2010-UT dated 28 January 2010 has accorded the approval to award the
consultancy for preparation of feasibility report and detailed project report of Delhi-
Gurgaon-Rewari-Alwar Corridor to Urban Mass Transit Company Ltd. (UMTC).
In the meeting of the sub-committee to the Task Force constituted by Secretary
(Urban Development) on RRTS for NCR held on 19th February 2010, the modalities of
carrying out the work were finalised and it was decided that NCR Planning Board will
issue the letter of award to UMTC.
NCR Planning Board issued the letter of award to UMTC on 11th March 2010 and the
Memorandum of Agreement between NCR Planning Board and UMTC was signed on
23rd March 2010.

2. Literature Review
UMTC has carried out a brief literature review of some of the relevant studies
undertaken in the recent past. This is followed by the review of the proposals of the
Development Plans for the towns which fall on the existing railway alignment.
2.1. Identification of Rail projects for Commuter Travel in National
Capital Region and Delhi – March 2000
NCR was conceived to develop selected settlements outside Delhi in order to diffuse
pressure on Delhi. An adequate and efficient Mass Transit System within Delhi and
its connection to settlement in NCR is one of the major tools to achieve this
objective. With this background Northern Railways commissioned a study in 1998 to
identify railway projects for commuter travel in NCR and Delhi. The objective of the
study was to develop a phased, cost- effective plan for an integrated rail/ road/ MRT
system in the study area with the view to reduce travel time, congestion and
pollution on roads of NCT of Delhi and NCR.
The study undertaken revealed that in 1998, 102 lakh intra city vehicular trips were
performed daily of which 62% were by buses, 1% by rail and remaining 37% by all
other modes. In addition 20 lakh intercity trips were also being performed daily of
which 50% were by buses, 20% by rail and 30% by all other modes. The study
forecasted that by 2005 the daily intra city vehicular trips would increase to 157
lakhs and by 2025 to 249 lakhs. Of these daily trips, 82% would be by mass transport
if improved mass transit system is provided. For intercity travel to Delhi, transport
demand was expected to grow to 35 lakh trips daily by 2005 and 90 lakhs trips by
2025. Of these about 40% were projected to be performed by rail. The consumer
preference survey undertaken revealed a substantial shift towards a mass transport
system both in inter and intra city traffic if a well-integrated rail cum road based
system (such as buses) is provided. Considering the demand and capacity of various
sections, a commuter rail development plan to be implemented in three phases, was
prepared.
