This has been constructed in order to provide a direct connectivity to the Inter State Bus Terminus (ISBT) at Sarai Kale Khan and the Hazrat Nizamuddin Railway Station, as part of the Phase-III Metro expansion project.
The Hazrat Nizamuddin Metro station will have dedicated entry/exit points connected to the Hazrat Nizamuddin Railway station and ISBT at Sarai Kale Khan. The entry/exit point at Sarai Kale Khan will be inside the ISBT complex while the entry/exit point at Hazrat Nizamuddin will be within 50 meters of the station complex. There will also be a third entry/exit towards Smriti Van, which crosses the road connects to the station. The Metro station is slated to open for public consumption by 2016.
The tunneling at the site was started on Monday in the presence of DMRC’s managing director, Mangu Singh and other senior officials. This tunnel boring machine (TBM) is expected to reach Ashram by the first week of July, 2014 after completing the first tunneling drive of 1,686 meters. The 3.366 km underground stretch between Lajpat Nagar and Hazrat Nizamuddin will witness a total of six TBM drives that includes two drives each from Hazrat Nizamuddin to Ashram, Ashram to Vinobapuri and Vinabapuri to Lajpat Nagar.
