The Haryana government is considering a plan to operate metro services along the proposed Namo Bharat corridor connecting Gurugram and Greater Noida, marking a significant shift in regional transit planning. The proposal has been put forward by the Haryana Mass Rapid Transport Corporation to the National Capital Region Transport Corporation for inclusion in the project’s Detailed Project Report (DPR).

Under the revised plan, a total of 18 metro stations are expected to be developed along the route, with eight located in Gurugram and ten in Faridabad. A key highlight of the proposal is the integration of metro services with the high-speed Namo Bharat network at major junctions.

One of the primary interchange hubs will be at Iffco Chowk, where the new metro line will also connect with the existing metro network. Additional stations in Gurugram are planned at Sector-29, Millennium City Centre, Sector-52, Wajirabad, and Sector-57. Another major interchange is proposed at Sector-61, linking the corridor to a future metro line between Sector-56 and Pachgaon.

In Faridabad, the metro is proposed to run along a 16-kilometre stretch of the Namo Bharat track, beginning at Sainik Colony and extending to Badshahpur. This segment is expected to significantly improve connectivity for daily commuters and reduce reliance on private vehicles, thereby easing traffic congestion across the region.

Given the high operational speed of Namo Bharat trains, estimated between 160 and 180 km/h,  noise pollution has emerged as a concern. To address this, HMRTC has recommended the installation of noise barriers, particularly in densely populated areas along the corridor. These measures aim to minimize the impact on nearby residential zones. 

If approved, the integrated corridor could become a major boost for public transport infrastructure in Haryana and the wider National Capital Region.
