Happy Wednesday my guys. Another infrastructure project video? Yes please!

[officialncrtc]

Dear B1M team, we thank you for sharing a very informative video about India's first RRTS project. Looking forward to many more topnotch coverage of transport and infrastructure projects from around the world!

I am from S Korea, I have seen a lot of videos related to India in recent days in which it is clear that India is developing fastest in the world. I would hope that India and China will be the focal point of this world in future👍🇮🇳

India has been shining since day one of their civilization. Unique country i hope to visit one day.

Only $US4bil for 82km of track, and was it 16 stations? Wow. that same length track in Western countries would cost $20-$40bil. It will sure help the business case with what I hope will be reasonable ticket prices.

I was born in this city in 2000s and a lot of development has took place in the delhi metro the number of new stations and lines has exploded one line is even being built front of my house it will open around 2023 you can see RRTS are also being built if you travel from highway

Some Indian projects that has or can change the fate of India and Indians economically and socially are
1. Delhi metro
2. Chenab Bridge (Tallest rail bridge in the world)
3. Kaleswaram lift Irrigation Project ( largest in Asia)
4. Largest integrated drip irrigation project in the world (Hungund, Karnataka)
5. Mumbai metro
6. Delhi Mumbai Expressway (longest 8 lane expressway in the world )
7. Dedicated freight corridor project
8. Indian HSR system
9. Navi Mumbai airport
10. GIFT city project
11. India's metro revolution with 15 cities now having metro . Kanpur metro has the record of fastest metro project ever constructed

For such a small sum! India knows how to care. And when they're able to go online with everything (not just internet) . . . Sharing with India is a right thing to do.

[globglogabgaleb]

I am from TÜRKIYE, currently in India. I wanted to say that we can rech from Delhi to Meerut in less than 65 minutes via Delhi Meerut Expressway 🙂

Looking at India, it feels like it is going to have infrastructure boom similar to China, might not necessarily be of the scale and speed of China, but one that will script a wonderful story in the early 21st century of Asia.

[PushedInsanityYT]

Please more content about India, cuz our media will never talk about it, YouTube is the only source.

Delhi was already a massive city 1200 years ago and many historic buildings were made in a random unplanned manner, this is by far the biggest challenge old Delhi faces .

[jackb]

I was in Delhi early 2020 and their metro system was amazing

[briangarrow]

Another impressive project for the people of India. I am an American who is very impressed with the projects being built across India. From irrigation to flood control, power and transportation, Indian engineers and companies have stepped up efforts to lead the way to bring a better more efficient future to the entire country. Well done, India!

[Hollandstation]

As a dutch person that loves making videos about transport infrastructure, I'm blown away by the scale that they are building!

[Domhnall_A_Ghalltachd]

This is brilliant! As an infrastructure nerd (like everyone else) I truly believe that government transport infrastructure projects can change peoples lives in the way they work, giving people more time in the day and improving people's health and well being.

[pranavmittal]

Seriously, it took atleast 3-4 hrs to cover that 80 km stretch between Delhi and Meerut until a few years ago.
Apart from that the usual gargantuan traffic within both these cities could consume your whole day.
Though now the situation has completely changed and is expected to only improve in the near future

[CountShasha]

Delhi's connectivity with its immediate neighbours is atrocious. This project was truly needed, it also lessens the population burden on Delhi as a lot of cities will now effectively be in commuting distance so workers wouldn't necessarily have to find a place to live in Delhi

[Sathish_]

India's infrastructure in the last 5 years or so is developing faster than ever before !

[schrodinger]

Being in delhi from early days 2004 to now. The metro rail have transformed it a lot.

10 years back the metro line used to serve up a much lesser area and was not that popular.

Cut to now almost all of Delhi is covered by metro and the residual area can be easily reached by feeder services like erickshaw. In very rare cases the area is completely inaccessible by metro.

The place where I live has now three metro lines within 4km range and one within a km range.
