The Begumpul Namo Bharat station in Uttar Pradesh’s Meerut, set to be the city’s only underground station offering both Namo Bharat and Metro services, is in the final phase of construction.
According to a statement from the National Capital Region Transport Corporation (NCRTC), track laying for both the up and down lines has been completed, and finishing work is progressing rapidly.
“Begumpul will be Meerut’s only underground station offering both Namo Bharat and Metro services to commuters,” the statement said. The station features two tracks with an advanced signaling system to ensure seamless operation of both transit services, it added.
The project marks a pioneering development in India, where two different transit systems will share the same infrastructure, NCRTC said in the statement.
The station will also have four dedicated entry and exit points serving different parts of the city, to enhance commuter accessibility.
