Delhi–Alwar Regional Rapid Transit System
The Delhi–Alwar Regional Rapid Transit System (Delhi–Alwar RRTS) is a 164 km (102 mi) planned semi-high speed rail corridor that will connect Delhi, Gurugram, Rewari, SNB and Alwar. It is one of the three Namo Bharat corridors planned under Phase 1 of the Rapid Rail Transport System of the National Capital Region Transport Corporation (NCRTC). With a maximum speed of 160 km/h (100 mph) and average speed of 105 km/h (65 mph), the distance between Delhi and Alwar is projected to be covered in 104 minutes.
The corridor has been planned for dual use, accommodating both Regional Rapid Transit System (RRTS) services for longer-distance travel with fewer stops and metro services for shorter suburban travel with more frequent stops. The project's cost estimated in 2017 was ₹37,000 crores (equivalent to ₹57,000 in 2026; or US$7.64 billion).
