NCRTC and DMRC collaborates for Integrated QR-Ticketing System

On 18 November, The National Capital Region Transport Corporation (NCRTC) and Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) officially launched their integrated QR-ticketing system . 

3 1

This landmark initiative is aimed at making travel across Delhi-NCR more seamless and convenient for commuters. A Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed by both organisations in August 2024, for creating a unified, digitally driven commuter centric network of networks in the region. 

Shri Shalabh Goel, Managing Director of NCRTC, and Dr. Vikas Kumar, Managing Director of DMRC, officially launched this integrated ticketing by booking the tickets on their respective mobile apps. Both have expressed confidence that the integration would pave the way for future innovations in travel, as well as encourage greater public transport usage in the region.

Commuters can now book Delhi Metro QR code tickets through the ‘RRTS Connect’ app and Namo Bharat QR code tickets through the ‘DMRC Momentum 2.0’ app, enabling seamless ticketing across both the RRTS systems and Delhi Metro. 

The integration of the RRTS and DMRC networks, supported by the newly launched QR-ticketing system, ensures a seamless travel experience across the NCR. The two systems complement each other, with regional transit provided by the Namo Bharat and intra-city transit services offered by the Delhi Metro, together creating a comprehensive and efficient commuting network for the community. This multi-modal connectivity not only enhances commuter convenience but also encourages increased public transport use, contributing to the long-term sustainability of these essential transit projects.

The integration represents a major leap forward in NCRTC’s mission to provide an efficient, sustainable, and commuter-centric transport solution across Delhi-NCR. In line with the Government’s “One India – One Ticket” initiative, which aims to make inter-modal travel as convenient as possible for passengers, this initiative will simplify the ticketing process. By consolidating both metro and RRTS travel options into a single digital platform, this collaboration significantly enhances connectivity for millions of commuters across the National Capital Region.

NCRTC is playing a pivotal role in shaping the region’s transport landscape with the implementation of the RRTS project. With this initiative, NCRTC has not only advanced its vision for a multi-modal, integrated transport system but also reinforced its commitment to promoting sustainable, green, and efficient public transportation solutions. This integration is expected to reduce queues at both NCRTC and DMRC stations, save passengers valuable time, encourage digital transactions and environmentally friendly travel options and provide a more seamless and time-efficient travel experience for passengers.

This initiative is also a continuation of NCRTC’s earlier MoU with IRCTC, which will enable passengers to book Namo Bharat train tickets via the IRCTC platform with the Indian railway train tickets, further simplifying access and enhancing convenience.

The newly launched system also aligns with the objectives of the PM National Gati Shakti Master Plan, which aims to foster integrated infrastructure and seamless connectivity between different transport modes. With the operational 42 km RRTS corridor now linked to the 393 km DMRC metro network, commuters can enjoy a unified and efficient travel experience. The integration will ease congestion, and promote a cleaner, more sustainable future for the region.

Chennai Metro Phase 2 Advances With Completion Of Piling Work On Line 4 ’s 8 Km Stretch 

Chennai (Metro Rail News) : Chennai Metro advances with the completion of piling works on the 8 km stretch of Phase 2’s  Line 4 between Kodambakkam Powerhouse and Porur Junction on 19 November. 

This 8 km stretch includes 5 Single Decker and 4 Double Decker stations, which requires 2,255 piles to support the structure and transfer the load to the ground. 

Chennai Metro Rail Limited (CMRL) made progress in Phase 2 by addressing key engineering challenges. This included rerouting 24.45 km of utilities, such as water pipelines, to make way for construction. To safeguard critical infrastructure like a 1,200mm water line, the CMRL project team adjusted pile layouts as needed. A particularly significant accomplishment was the successful diversion of a massive 1,500mm water line without interrupting the water supply.

Chennai Metro Phase 2

Chennai Metro phase spanning 116.1 km c consists of 3 corridors. The Tamil Nadu government approved  Phase 2 of Chennai Metro in 2019 at an estimated cost of Rs. 69,180 crore.

NCRTC Honored With The IGBC Net-Zero Energy Rating For Sahibabad and Guldhar RRTS Stations

Metro Rail News: On 16 November, NCRTC reached a milestone as Sahibabad and Guldhar RRTS stations located on the Delhi-Ghaziabad-Meerut corridor achieved a Net-Zero Energy rating by the Indian Green Building Council (IGBC) at Green Building Congress 2024. 

The platinum-rated Sahibabad and Guldhar RRTS stations marked a historic achievement due to their energy-positive operations powered by solar infrastructure. The use of solar infrastructure at stations reflects the NCRTC’s commitment towards a sustainable urban transit system.

1200 675 22906450 762 22906450 1731668424080

NCRTC’s Initiative:

The NCRTC has installed in-house solar rooftop plants at the Sahibabad and Guldhar RRTS stations. These solar panels are designed to generate more energy than the auxiliary consumption. The surplus energy generated through solar panels is directed to support other NCRTC electrical systems. 

During the different stages of the Delhi-Ghaziabad-Meerut corridor project, NCRTC boosted several green practices, including: 

  • Utilisation of fly ash bricks.
  • Reusing waste for construction of RRTS.
  • Natural ventilation and energy-capable designs.
  • Solar energy solutions and rainwater harvesting systems.

Significance of sustainable practice

The solar panels along stations generate 4 MWp of in-house solar power, reducing annual C02 emissions by over 4,000 tons. 

Acknowledgement received by Ghaziabad RRTS project 

During the Green Building Congress 2024, the Ghaziabad RRTS station also received the IGBC Platinum rating in the Green MRTS category.
