Great Great
Sadly current infrastructure at Gurgaon station is not adequate to host this huge rush or patronage of this train .. Women working in IT sector , mothers traveling with kids and other working population of the city have quickly adopted this train.

There was huge rush of about 300 people who deboarded this train at GGN and people in equal numbers must have boarded the train .
...
more...

There was huge jam of 500 m filled with cars and cabs outside the station making situation more chaotic .
Had to walk 200 m away from the station to catch the cab as he was unable to reach the station parking …

Authorities should develop a new station along Dwarka Expressway which may be easily accessible from all parts of the city instead on investing in this one …

Attaching some pics for your reference

Spending 250 cr on the current station won't worth it.. as it is located in the most congested part of the city ... a new station should be built

It would be much better to build a metro line underground from dwarka sector 21 towards Gurgaon railway station and then under the station road to rajiv chowk and onwards. GGN redevelopment isn't feasible. Rather connection to Bijwasan would be much better.

Metro line is under construction and is planned to pass through a junction which is 500 m away from the station . So there will always be a problem of last mile connectivity here …
Local buses do ply to the station but they are highly unreliable due to current traffic situation of the city

the area is too densely populated to construct new roads. Both New Railway Road and Old Railway road (with sadar bazar traffic) get merged along with the road coming from Sheetla Mata Mandir Road and in the end there is only one Road to the railway station for the entire Millenium city.
Will have to construcct flyovers which will take 10 years. Bijwasan which is almost 10 kms farther takes same time as reaching Gurgaon railway staion as all the connecting roads are with heavy traffic

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
