The Saket G Block corridor from Lajpat Nagar in Delhi has been given the green signal. There will be a total of eight stations on this route. This will be the first metro route in the country which will have only three coaches.
The total length of this route will be 8 km and 80 thousand passengers will be able to travel on this route every day. This route passes through many interchanges. Due to the interchange, passengers traveling on this route will also be able to travel to other routes. This route is expected to start by 2029. Work on this route may start in the next few months.
Phase-IV’s Lajpat Nagar – Saket G Block Metro Corridor will be the second shortest metro line (8 km) in the Delhi Metro network. It will expand last mile connectivity while ensuring seamless interchange with existing metro corridors. The benefit of opening this route will be that it will consume less energy per trip.
Each coach will have a capacity of around 300 passengers
This will cause less harm to the environment and will also cost less. Each coach will have a seating and standing capacity of around 300 passengers, meaning a total of 900 passengers will be able to travel in 3 coaches per trip.
