Chhattisgarh being new state was lagging much behind the new Railway network, it was decades old system, in last decade many of Railway projects started and moved ahead, This was push by large scale industrial growth and transportation of minerals like Coal, Iron ore etc.

Metro Railway Projects of Chhattisgarh

New Metro line is proposed between Rajnandgaon-Bhilai-Raipur-Naya Raipur. It is 80 Kms link.

First phase work will start with Bhilai-Raipur connectivity.

Chhattisgarh government's move to modernize mass transport system for its capital and adjoining cities got a shot in the arm with the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) giving a final nod for construction of the inter-state metro rail link connecting Raipur and Durg. DMRC completed the feasibility study and has recommended for a detailed project report (DPR) that would see the metro rail chugging out of the city by 2021.

Chhattisgarh Metro Train between Rajnandgaon-Durg-Raipur-Naya Raipur

Attractions:

DMRC has completed the feasibility study and has recommended a detailed project report (DPR). The cost of the entire project is estimated to be worth Rs 20,000 crore. The project will be implemented in three phases.

Metro Train between Rajnandgaon-Durg-Raipur-Naya Raipur is divided in three phase.

First phase:

Durg to Raipur (45 Kms Approx).
Possible metro route will be Raipur Naka - Jail Tiraha - Pulgaon Chowk - parallel to NH 6 towards Telibandha Raipur. It is going to cost 6000 Cr Rs.
There are 18 stations proposed for this route.

At present, about 28 lakh people commute between the two cities every month.

Second Phase:

Rajnandgaon to Durg. (45 Kms approx.)
There are 15 stations proposed for this route.
Approximate cost will be 8000 Cr. Rs. for this phase.

Third Phase:

Telibandha, Raipur to Naya Raipur (40 Kms approx)
Survey is completed but approximate budget is still under discussion.

Chhattisgarh Metro route is planned to complete by year 2021.

Almost 10,000 people commute per day from Raipur to Rajnand Gaon. But the general public thinks that metro should be introduced on Raipur-Bilaspur route because the traffic pressure is higher than the Raipur-Rajnandgaon. But because of natural resource and blocks, the Raipur-Rajnandgaon route was an easier and cheaper option for the government.

Location:

This proposed line is located in heart of Chhattisgarh(Check CG districts map), in Raipur, Durg and Rajnandgaon District. (there are 4 populated cities, Raipur, Bhilai, Durg and Rajnandgaon).
