GHAZIABAD, July 14, 2024 – The Ghaziabad Development Authority (GDA) has revealed plans for a new township initiative named “Naya Ghaziabad.” Situated along the forthcoming Regional Rapid Transit System (RRTS) corridor, this endeavor seeks to enhance Ghaziabad’s urban expanse by introducing approximately 5,000 residences and enhancing connectivity.
The RRTS venture will cover a distance of 82 kilometers, linking Delhi, Ghaziabad, and Meerut through rapid transit rail services. In proximity to the eight RRTS terminals, the GDA has identified Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) zones within a 1.5-kilometer radius to promote mixed land utilization and heightened floor area ratios, fostering comprehensive urban advancement.
