Namo Bharat Train: For the first time in India, passengers can now know live train tracking and real-time parking status through the ‘RRTS Connect’ app, which is going to be very convenient for travel.
Taking a big step towards increasing passenger-convenience and travel efficiency, NCRTC has launched two pioneering features on the ‘RRTS Connect’ app. Which will set a new benchmark for public transport in India.
For the first time in the country, passengers of NaMo Bharat trains can now avail live train tracking and live parking status, which will provide them with real-time information of NaMo Bharat trains, making their travel experience easier and more efficient. The live train tracking feature provides passengers with real-time updates on train arrivals, which also shows the exact status and location of NaMo Bharat trains. This enables passengers to plan their journey with accuracy, letting them know when the next train will arrive at their station.
Apart from the train arrival time, the feature also provides information about the next station as well as the distance and estimated arrival time. Similarly, the Live Parking Status feature will provide real-time updates on parking space availability at RRTS stations, which is a first for commuters. Passengers can now see the current occupancy of parking spaces, helping them decide in advance about where to park their vehicles. This will save passengers’ time and they will get parking without any delay.
Adequate parking facilities for more than 8,000 vehicles are being provided at RRTS stations from Delhi to Meerut. These new facilities make the already existing features in the ‘RRTS Connect’ app, such as ticket booking, station navigation and last-mile connectivity options, more effective. Options like “feeder bus service”, bike, auto and cab booking are also available on the app, ensuring last-mile connectivity for passengers.
Additionally, “Station Amenities” provides passengers with detailed information about station amenities, including drinking water, toilets, elevators and escalators, as well as the station layout to aid navigation. The app also facilitates direct communication with the station control room via phone or WhatsApp for any assistance and includes a “lost and found” feature to help recover lost items.
By introducing live train tracking and parking status for the first time in India, NCRTC is not only setting a new standard for public transport but also significantly enhancing the travel experience for Namo Bharat Train passengers. Currently, 42 km of the RRTS corridor is operational for passengers. It has nine stations, namely Sahibabad, Ghaziabad, Guldhar, Duhai, Duhai Depot, Muradnagar, Modinagar South, Modi Nagar North and Meerut South. Along with this, trial runs are also going on on the Delhi section from New Ashok Nagar to Sahibabad. Once this section is operational, the total operational length of the corridor will increase to 54 km.
