The 82-kilometer section of the RRTS is anticipated to be operational by 2025. It is anticipated that RRTS will enhance connectivity between Delhi, Ghaziabad, and Meerut by providing ease of travelling. According to NCRTC plans, the train will take 60 minutes to travel the distance between Delhi and Meerut, making it easier for residents of the NCR to commute. Prior to that, the priority section—covering five stations—including Duhai Depot, Duhai, Guldhar, Ghaziabad, and Sahibabad—will be operational.

The RRTS is expected to be India's fastest rail transportation system, with a top speed of 180 kmph. The train's streamlined shape, built to endure the speed, will help with the high speed. Once operational, RRTS will also be integrated with other modes of transportation, such as the metro, railroad, and bus stops, according to the government.
