The project’s feasibility report was prepared by INECO, TYPSA and ICT in 2017. Per the project’s feasibility report, riders will be able to travel between Delhi and Lucknow in 1 hour and 38 minutes, and between Delhi – Varanasi in 2 hours and 37 minutes.

In February 2020, the National High Speed Rail Corporation (NHSRCL) invited bids for preparing the line’s final alignment design, using LiDAR surveys, and for preparing Stage-1 preliminary route development artefacts, with an aim to prepare its detailed project report (DPR) as tasked by the Government of India in 2019. Contracts for these were awarded in August-end – see contract list at the bottom.

In March 2020, NHSRCL invited bids for environment (EIA) & social impact surveys (SIA), assessments, and utility identification along its proposed route. This line is part of the Diamond Quadrilateral project and will be extended in the future to Patna, Bihar and Kolkata, West Bengal.

Route Description: The proposed Delhi Varanasi High Speed Rail Corridor is planned to run along major expressways, national highways, greenfield areas, and may pass through arterial roads of the intermediate city road network for high speed rail connectivity between different cities along the corridor.
Alignment and location of stations displayed in Attached are purely indicative just to give an idea of how the line might look like.

The fare structure is yet to be finalized but is expected to be 1.5 times the existing first class AC fare on the Indian Railways’ current service. The line’s official fare structure, prices and rules are expected to be finalized closer to the start of commercial operations.

Per the feasibility report, the line’s base fare is pegged at Rs. 4.5 per kilometer, so a ride from Delhi to Varanasi could cost approximately Rs. 3240 and approximately Rs. 1980 from Delhi to Lucknow.
