The process for opening commercial spaces at other stations within this operated section will commence soon.
At Sahibabad RRTS station, a built-up area of approximately 165 square meters in the entry/exit block adjacent to Vasundhara and the Sahibabad Industrial Area is available for bidding. This location, situated on Madan Mohan Malviya Road, offers an excellent opportunity for commercial establishments such as restaurants, shopping outlets, banks, and offices.
Similarly, at Guldhar RRTS station, a built-up area of approximately 145 square meters located in the entry/exit block offers an attractive opportunity for commercial establishments such as restaurants, food outlets, shopping outlets, banks, and offices.

The entire corridor spans 82 km, with construction progressing rapidly on the under-construction stretches.
