Project Description
If provided by the financial institution, the Early Warning System Team writes a short summary describing the purported development objective of the project and project components. Review the complete project documentation for a detailed description.

According to ADB, the proposed Delhi-SNB Regional Rapid Transit System (RRTS) Investment Project is financing the second of three prioritized rail corridors of the planned RRTS network in the National Capital Region (NCR) of India. The Delhi-SNB RRTS will pass through the densely populated sections of the NCR, connecting urban nodes across Delhi, Gurugram, and the Shahjahanpur-Neemrana-Behror (SNB) urban complex in the state of Rajasthan. This 107-kilometer (km) corridor will provide a safe, reliable, and efficient commuter system with stations at every 5 to 10 km. It will facilitate high-speed mobility through high-frequency operations of 5-10 minutes, and a design speed of 180 km per hour. The project will finance the construction of the corridor, 11 elevated and 5 underground stations, track work, traction, and maintenance facilities. The proposed corridor will also support integrated land use planning and urban development through the implementation of land value capture and transit-oriented development pilot projects.

ACCOUNTABILITY MECHANISM OF ADB

The Accountability Mechanism is an independent complaint mechanism and fact-finding body for people who believe they are likely to be, or have been, adversely affected by an Asian Development Bank-financed project. If you submit a complaint to the Accountability Mechanism, they may investigate to assess whether the Asian Development Bank is following its own policies and procedures for preventing harm to people or the environment.
