In a move to improve connectivity between Ghaziabad Namo Bharat Station and Delhi Metro‘s Shaheed Sthal Metro Station, NCRTC has decided to install travelators (moving walkways) on the footbridge connecting the two stations. For this work, NCRTC has awarded a ₹12.13 crore contract to M/s Omega Elevators. These moving walkways will make it faster and easier for passengers to transfer between stations, making the overall journey smooth and convenient.

Easier station transfer

The installation of travelators will make it much easier for passengers to move between the Namo Bharat Station and the Delhi Metro station. Instead of walking long distances, commuters will be able to use moving walkways for a smoother journey.

Faster and more convenient travel

With travelators in place, the time taken to switch between the two stations will be reduced. This will make daily travel quicker and more convenient, especially for regular commuters.
