A major scheme is being finalized to promote regional connectivity and urban development in Uttar Pradesh. Now the new urban center of Agra will be directly connected to Jewar Airport – Noida International Airport through ‘Namobharat Rapid Rail’. This is an important step that will change the economic and social picture of the state.
Officials have given a green signal to this ambitious project, under which a 130 km long high-speed rail track will be laid. The project will not only make the journey between Agra and Jewar faster and convenient, but will also connect important economic and tourist centers in Uttar Pradesh to each other.
Importance of Project:
-
Seamless connectivity: By connecting the upcoming Urban Center in Agra directly to Jewar Airport, this area will become more attractive to investors, businesses and tourists. Agra is a major tourist destination due to its world famous Taj Mahal, and direct rapid rail connectivity will make tourists to go and easier.
-
Fast speed and convenience: Namo Bharat Rapid Rail Project will provide a comfortable journey at high speed. This will help people to fix long distances in short time without traffic jams.
-
Economic Development: This connectivity corridor will promote industrial development, commercial activities and real estate sectors in these areas. This will also create new employment opportunities for the local people.
-
Environment friendly: Rapid rail is an environment-friendly transport means, which will reduce pollution and congestion caused by road traffic.
This project will bring revolution in the experience of traveling between major cities of Uttar Pradesh. Gautam Budh Nagar, where Jewar Airport is located, will now be directly connected to the Urban Center in Agra, which will create a ‘Corridor of Growth’. It is an important part of the comprehensive view of the Yogi government of better connectivity of other major cities along with the state capital Lucknow.
