NCRTC has launched a free shuttle service connecting its Ghaziabad RRTS station with Shaheed Sthal metro station to improve last-mile connectivity options for passengers. The service will enhance commuter convenience, ensuring a comfortable, safe, and hassle-free transfer between the two transportation hubs.
According to an official statement, this initiative is part of National Capital Region Transport Corporate’s (NCRTC) ongoing efforts to improve last-mile connectivity options for passengers. The distance between the two transport modes is approximately 300 meters, and these e-rickshaws will shuttle back and forth during peak hours, transporting commuters efficiently, it said.
The Ghaziabad Namo Bharat Station is strategically positioned at the intersection of key roads along the Ghaziabad-Meerut route, specifically at the Meerut Tiraha Mor. In the near future, Shaheed Sthal Metro Station will be connected to the Namo Bharat Station via a foot-over bridge, ensuring safe and easy access. While the construction of the foot-over bridge is underway, the shuttle service will remain operational to ensure uninterrupted service for passengers, it stated.
