NEW DELHI, 19 March (H.S.) : Jewar Airport, an important aviation facility currently

being developed in the Delhi NCR area, will provide direct access to Delhi via

DTC bus services. The Delhi government has suggested the launch of electric bus

services operated by DTC to Jewar Airport, with the goal of providing travellers

with a cost-effective and convenient transportation alternative. This

initiative aims to improve the connectivity between Delhi and Jewar Airport in

the NCR region.

Delhi's Transport Minister, Pankaj Singh, has announced

that this service will be introduced initially as a pilot project. He further

stated that a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) has been signed between the

Delhi Transport Corporation (DTC) and Jewar Airport, outlining the terms of

collaboration between the two organizations.

According to the recently introduced initiative, electric

DTC buses will commence operations from three major bus terminals in Delhi:

Anand Vihar, Sarai Rohilla, and Kamla Market. The purpose of these buses is to

provide a cost-effective and environmentally friendly means of transportation

for passengers traveling to Jewar Airport from Delhi. Importantly, women will

benefit from free travel on this route, similar to the complimentary travel

services available to women on other DTC buses across the city. Jewar Airport

is currently being developed as a significant aviation centre in the Delhi NCR

area, intended to serve both passenger and cargo flights. Furthermore, it will

feature direct connectivity to Delhi through the operation of DTC buses.
