The government is preparing to run light metro between Noida International Airport and Pari Chowk and a proposal regarding this has been presented in a high-level meeting held in Lucknow.
YEIDA has been directed to conduct a feasibility study on a light rail corridor between Noida International Airport and the proposed Film City. The move comes after a global tender for the pod taxi project failed to get any bidders.
The Union Minister of Ports, Shipping & Waterways Sarbananda Sonowal visited the project sites at Bogibeel to review the progress of jetties. The Minister directed the authorities to ensure quality in the construction of the projects, which are likely to fasten the cargo movement via Brahmaputra onto the global trade ways.
The jetties at Bogibeel and Guijan are being constructed with a view to provide an efficient mode of transportation for the trade interests of the region. I believe that the Marine Jetty at Bogibeel will be inaugurated this new year, unlocking huge possibilities for the people of this region, Sonowal said.
