NCRTC relocates depot to Panchgaon for Delhi-Alwar RRTS Line
The National Capital Region Transport Corporation (NCRTC) has shifted the depot of Delhi-Alwar Regional Rapid Transit System (RRTS) from Dharuhera in Rewari, Haryana to Panchgaon in Gurugram district in Haryana. After opening the proposed RRTS corridor will significantly reduce the travel time between Delhi and Alwar, leading to decongestion of the national capital.
The Haryana government has planned to make Panchgaon a major transit integration of three systems. It will connect the RRTS corridor with the proposed Gurugram Metro extension from Sector 56 and the upcoming Haryana Orbital Rail Corridor along the KMP expressway.
According to The New Indian Express, the NCRTC has completed the surveys for the first phase of the project covering Sarai Kale Khan in Delhi to Bawal in Haryana. They have conducted land assessments and studied the soil quality across 22 locations along the route, including DGPS survey, topography mapping and pile assessment. The first phase of the project will be the longest phase covering 93.5 km of the total 164 km route.
In an earlier announcement, the NCRTC had shifted the terminal station for the first phase of the project. Initially, the proposed terminal station for the phase was planned at SNP (Shahjahanpur-Neemrana-Behror), but it was later reduced to Bawal, shortening the initial stretch.
The proposed corridor will connect Delhi with Gurugram and Rewari in Haryana, and Alwar in Rajasthan. This will be the second Namo Bharat corridor, after the Delhi-Meerut RRTS, connecting Delhi with neighbouring districts through semi-high speed trains. The Delhi-Meerut RRTS became entirely operational on 22nd February 2026, covering Sarai Kale Khan in Delhi to Modipuram in Meerut in less than 1 hour.
