L&T wins major Noida Metro Aqua Line extension contract

Larsen & Toubro (L&T) has been awarded a substantial contract by the Noida Metro Rail Corporation (NMRC) for the partial design and construction of elevated viaducts as part of the Aqua Line extension project. The project scope encompasses 15.1 km of elevated corridor construction split across two distinct stretches in Noida.

The first stretch will extend from Botanical Garden to Noida Sector-142, while the second phase will connect Depot Station to Boraki. Both sections will feature elevated viaduct construction, a key component of the metro system's expansion to enhance connectivity in the region.

The Aqua Line, officially known as the Noida Metro Rail Corridor, has been a crucial addition to the National Capital Region's public transport infrastructure since its launch. The extension project is expected to further improve connectivity across Noida and its neighboring areas, supporting the region's growing urban mobility demands.

L&T, a major player in infrastructure and construction projects across India, has been involved in several metro rail projects in the country. The company's experience in metro rail construction positions it to execute this significant expansion project as per regulatory standards and timelines.

The project award reflects continued investment in public transport infrastructure in the NCR region, aimed at reducing traffic congestion and promoting sustainable urban mobility solutions in one of India's fastest-growing metropolitan areas.
