Rs 2.3K-crore Metro corridor between Noida, Greater Noida West likely in 2031

The Union Cabinet has approved the extension of the Noida Metro's Aqua Line from Noida Sector 51 to Greater Noida's Sector 4, with an estimated cost of Rs 2,390 crore. This 8.449-km extension, set to begin soon and complete by 2031, will include five elevated stations and have an interchange facility with the Blue Line at Noida Sector 61.

The proposed corridor is expected to benefit various commercial, residential, educational, and healthcare hubs, including Gaur City Mall, Blue Sapphire Mall, and prominent educational institutions like Delhi Public School. The extension is expected to improve access to these areas, reduce dependence on private vehicles, ease road congestion, and promote environmentally sustainable urban mobility.
