Noida Metro: The Aqua Line Would Seamlessly Connect to the Blue Line in Delhi

To overcome connectivity issues, Noida Metro suggests extending the Aqua Line and creating a smooth connection to Delhi’s Blue Line.

Currently, Noida’s sector 51 and 52 metro stations serve as an interchange between the Blue Line and the Aqua Line.

The Noida Extension, also called the Aqua Line Extension, is a proposed route that would run from Noida Sector 51 to Knowledge Park-V in Greater Noida West.

For years, the people of the area have been demonstrating in favor of metro service and smooth integration with the Noida Blue Line.

Even with travellators available, commuters will still be discouraged from using this FoB connection because it is 430 meters between the two stations

Travellators were later introduced to provide FoB connectivity; nevertheless, this is not a long-term, permanent solution.
