Delhi–Panipat Regional Rapid Transit System (Delhi–Panipat RRTS) is a proposed, 103 km (64 mi) long, semi-high speed rail corridor connecting Delhi, Sonipat and Panipat in the National Capital Region.[1][2] It is one of the three rapid-rail corridors planned under Phase-1 of the Rapid Rail Transport System of the National Capital Region Transport Corporation (NCRTC). With maximum speed of 160 km/h and average speed of 120 km/h, commuters using the system will be able to cover the distance between Panipat and Delhi in 74 minutes. The project is expected to cost ₹ 16,500 crores.[3]

Stations

The line will start from Sarai Kale Khan station which will allow interchange with Delhi-Alwar and Delhi-Meerut lines, as well as connectivity to the Nizamuddin railway station, Sarai Kale Khan ISBT and Hazrat Nizamuddin metro station. There will be total 16 stations on the corridor out of which two will be underground and the rest will be elevated[4]
