New Delhi: Commuters travelling between Delhi and Meerut are set to get faster connectivity, with new Namo Bharat train services scheduled to begin on November 16. According to the reported update, selected services will reduce the travel time between the two cities to around 36 minutes, offering a quicker option for daily commuters and other passengers.
The development is expected to improve regional connectivity across Delhi, Ghaziabad and Meerut. The National Capital Region Transport Corporation (NCRTC), which operates the Regional Rapid Transit System (RRTS), has already made the entire 82.15-km Delhi–Ghaziabad–Meerut corridor operational.
The corridor connects Sarai Kale Khan in Delhi with Modipuram in Meerut and includes major stations such as New Ashok Nagar, Anand Vihar, Sahibabad, Ghaziabad, Muradnagar, Modinagar and Meerut South. Namo Bharat trains are designed to run at speeds of up to 180 kmph, with a maximum operational speed of 160 kmph.
The regular end-to-end journey across the full corridor generally takes around 55–60 minutes. The reported 36-minute journey therefore relates to the faster service and should not be treated as the standard travel time for every train or station combination.
The faster services are expected to benefit office-goers, students and business travellers who frequently commute between the National Capital and western Uttar Pradesh. Passengers should check the latest NCRTC timetable for specific departure times, stoppages and journey details before travelling.
