Direct Route from Delhi to Jewar: Delhi–Noida Airport Namo Bharat

Regarding the stations through which this high-speed rapid train will pass between Delhi and Noida Airport, let me inform you that its route will commence from Sarai Kale Khan in Delhi, proceed via the DND Flyway, Noida City Centre, NSEZ, Surajpur, and Pari Chowk, and traverse through the YEIDA sectors before reaching the Noida International Airport. Through this rapid rail route, the journey from certain parts of Delhi to Noida Airport will be completed in a mere 21 minutes. Extending from Ghaziabad to Jewar, this corridor will interconnect with the existing Delhi-Meerut ‘Namo Bharat’ corridor at Ghaziabad Station. As for passengers traveling from Meerut or Ghaziabad, they will be able to reach Jewar Airport without any inconvenience or the need to change trains. The distance between Ghaziabad and Jewar spans 72 kilometers, a journey that will be completed in approximately 50 to 60 minutes.

This corridor is poised to bring about a transformative change in high-speed connectivity across the entire NCR region. It has now been forwarded to the Union Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA) for final approval. Modifications have also been incorporated into the DPR to integrate the Delhi-Varanasi High-Speed ​​Rail Corridor with the airport terminal via a dedicated station.This integration will enable connectivity from Delhi to the airport in approximately 21 minutes. Following the inauguration of the Jewar Airport, the entire Yamuna Expressway region is expected to emerge as a major cargo hub. The Yamuna Expressway is currently being linked to several key expressways including the Agra-Lucknow, Bundelkhand, Purvanchal, Delhi-Mumbai, and Ganga Expressways thereby ensuring high-speed connectivity across the network.
