Fuel pumps, cables to shift for RRTS corridor in Gurugram: NCRTC
The National Capital Regional Transport Corporation (NCRTC) has sought a no-objection certificate (NOC) from the Gurugram Metropolitan Development Authority (GMDA) to shift high-tension electricity lines and fuel stations along the Delhi-Jaipur highway. The utility relocation is essential for constructing the Namo Bharat (RRTS) corridor from Aerocity to Dharuhera, which is slated to begin in August 2026, officials said. According to officials, the request pertains to shifting 220kV and 66kV towers near IFFCO Chowk, installed by Haryana Vidyut Prasaran Nigam Limited (HVPNL). These lines currently supply electricity to Sectors 17, 18, 19, 25 and 28. In a formal letter, NCRTC referred to an earlier joint inspection conducted on April 2 with officials from GMDA, HVPNL, and Haryana State Industrial and Infrastructure Development Corporation (HSIIDC). NCRTC's superintending engineer wrote, 'NCRTC hereby undertakes that utility services, if any, found infringing in the proposed ROW of GMDA, will be shifted as per site requirement.' The letter added that the Namo Bharat corridor is part of the PM Gati Shakti National Master Plan, which aims to enhance multimodal connectivity and accelerate infrastructure development. 'It is requested to issue NOC for the proposed plan to shift the transmission line to facilitate the corridor's construction,' it stated. A GMDA official said, 'We will look into the matter in detail. This project is of national importance and a decision will be taken at the earliest.'

Manesar power grid gets Rs 28-crore boost with new substation
Gurgaon: The state govt on Monday approved construction of a new 66/11 kV GIS substation at IMT Manesar to enhance power infrastructure in Manesar's industrial area. Being built for Rs 28 crore, the project will bolster industrial power supply and reduce outages, which are particularly common during summer. Officials believe the improved infrastructure will provide more reliable electricity for factories. The new substation will be constructed in the Technology Park of IMT Manesar and will take three years to complete. Meanwhile, the state govt has also approved development works to enhance infrastructure in the residential area of IMT Manesar. The construction of a warehouse at the electronic manufacturing cluster IMT Sohna was also approved, with an estimated cost of around Rs 14 crore. In addition, HVPNL has also upgraded its substation in Sector 8 of IMT Manesar. "Increased capacity of the 66 kV substation will ensure a more reliable power supply and reduce the risk of overload, tripping, and power disruptions," an HSIIDC official said. A substation at the transport hub is being upgraded to handle additional loads. According to the official, as soon as the load on any equipment reaches 80% of its capacity, it must be upgraded, or else it causes overloading. The 220 kV Transport Hub substation, which was commissioned in Sept last year, is being further augmented. It already had two 100 MVA transformers, and a 20 MVA transformer has also been installed now to help manage additional load. TNN
