Blue Line Metro Extension Plan
A project has been proposed for the extension of the Blue Line Metro. The extension is planned from Noida Electronic City to Sahibabad. This extension plan was proposed five years back submitted to the DMRC and revised in January 2024.
There will be five stations added from Noida Electronic City to Sahibabad.
| Station | Metro Station |
| 1. | Vaibhav Khand |
| 2. | DPS Indirapuram |
| 3. | Shakti Khand |
| 4. | Vasundhra Sector-5 |
| 5. | Sahibabad |
The last station of the extension Sahibabad is being planned to connect with the Rapid Rail transit station. The project aims to build a multi-channel connectivity to provide comfort to the commuters. The Sahibabad metro station would be situated on one side while the station for the Rapid Rail Transit Corridor on the other side. The two stations would be connected with the help of a foot-over bridge. This would make it easier for the travellers to change the trains from Blue Line Metro to the RRT corridor without doing a formal exit from either of the stations.
The total cost of the project is estimated to be about Rupees 1,873 crore.
