The Government of Haryana has approved the 103 km Delhi-Panipat Regional Rapid Transit System (RRTS) corridor. for realizing the dream of seamless connectivity across the National Capital Region(NCR)

The length of the corridor will be 103.02 km and it will have 17 stations, including 11 in Haryana.

The construction and commissioning of the Delhi-Panipat RRTS will be undertaken in two stages – from Sarai Kale Khan to Murthal, including Murthal Depot (58.28 km), and between Murthal and Panipat, including Panipat Depot (44.74 km).

The state cabinet also approved a gross contribution of Rs 4,699 crore as the state's share towards the project cost. The overall cost of the corridor is estimated to be Rs. 21,627 crore.

The state cabinet also approved to permit purchasable FAR of up to 1.25 within the project influence zone in Haryana. Since the sale of purchasable FAR is directly attributed to the development of the RRTS, it has been decided that 80 percent of the revenue to be realized from the sale of additional FAR for the designated mixed-use areas will be shared with the RRTS project.

The project will enable efficient and effective movement of a large number of people into vastly congested places and provide important links for residents of urban/sub-urban nodes in Haryana to access services and facilities in towns and cities of the region while bringing and accelerating the economic development of these urban nodes, it added.
