Delhi Metro Phase IV corridor: The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) is set to begin the laying of tracks and traction work on a stretch of the upcoming Janakpuri West – RK Ashram Marg corridor of Phase 4. The authorities have targeted to complete the construction work on the corridor by March 2026. The traction work includes the erection of Over Head Electrification (OHE) masts etc on the Majlis Park to Mukarba Chowk stretch.
Recently, the DMRC has successfully concluded the structural work of four kilometres of viaduct of the stretch connecting the Majlis Park and Bhalswa Metro stations on the upcoming Phase 4 corridor. This was completed without any major disruption to the flow of traffic.
This is an important achievement of the DMRC engineers and other workers. The viaduct will be completed till Haiderpur Badli soon, as just a crossing over a railway track is left there.
The construction work on this corridor had started amidst the COVID-19 crisis. However, it faced intermittent delays due to the pandemic, and issues pertaining to obtaining tree-cutting clearances.

The work on the upcoming Phase 4 corridor is in full swing. Last year, the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation completed the construction of 2.2 km long underground tunnels (for both Up and Down movement) between Janakpuri West and Krishna Park Extension.
