Delhi Metro Phase-IV project

The Delhi Metro’s expansion project is currently underway on three priority corridors that will house a total of 45 stations. These corridors – ‘Janakpuri West-RK Ashram Marg’ extension (28.92 km) and the ‘Majlis Park-Maujpur’ extension (12.55 km) – are extensions of the operational ‘Magenta Line’ and ‘Pink Line’, respectively. 

During Phase-IV project, ‘Aerocity-Tughlakabad’ corridor (23.62 km) will also be constructed to connect the  ‘Violet Line’ and ‘Airport Line’ from their respective ends. This corridor is being referred to as the ‘Golden Line’. 

Among these 65.2 km-long corridors, a 28-km stretch will be constructed underground whereas the remaining portion of the route will be elevated. Notably, the Chhattarpur metro station will become an interchange facility after ‘Golden Line’ corridor becomes operational.
