Covering the three districts of Rewari, Jhajjar and Rohtak, the rail line would benefit residents of 41 surrounding villages.There are 128 major bridges including 13 Road-under-Bridges, 4 Road-over bridges and 38 manned level-crossings and is thus a significantly developed area. As this region is proximal to the National Capital region and is marked by dense population, the commissioning of the new rail line would be a highly facilitative mode of transport.
Rewari and Rohtak were connected through 129.86 Km rail section via Bhiwani. In order to provide a direct and shorter link between the two towns, it was decided to construct a new Broad Gauge link between Rohtak and Rewari via Jhajjar through 81.257 Km rail line, thereby reducing traveling distance by nearly 50 kms with corresponding reduction in travel time.
