Work has started on another option to connect Noida International Airport Jewar to Delhi. Yamuna Development Authority will run Ultra PRT (Personal Rapid Transit). It is planned to run from New Ashok Nagar to Jewar. Yamuna Authority will get its feasibility report from Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC). Due to this, negotiations are going on. Yamuna Authority is working for the connectivity of Jewar Airport. Now preparations are on to link it to Ultra PRT. Actually, one station on the Delhi-Meerut track of the Rapid Train will be New Ashok Nagar in Delhi. Ultra PRT will be run from Jewar to New Ashok Nagar.
Passengers will be able to take rapid trains from New Ashok Nagar. This distance will be about 65 kilometers. Yamuna Authority CEO Dr. Arunveer Singh said that the metro will cost half the cost in its construction. According to an estimate, its construction will cost about 3.5 thousand crores. The track of Ultra PRT will be made elevated. It is possible that this track will pass through Noida, Greater Noida Expressway and along the Yamuna Expressway. The Ultra PRT operates at a speed of 100 kilometers per hour. Its one compartment can seat 20 people. Compared to the normal vehicle, its journey will be completed in 60 percent less time.
