Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin has delivered a game-changing infrastructure upgrade for Chennai with the inauguration of an L-shaped flyover at Central Kailash. Priced at Rs 60.68 crore and stretching 652 meters, it promises to unravel the knots of traffic binding Adyar, Guindy, and beyond.
At the heart of Sardar Patel Road’s frenzy – where it meets Rajiv Gandhi Salai – lies a junction infamous for immobilizing flows to IIT Madras, the Adyar Cancer Institute, and OMR’s corporate landscape. Multi-directional influxes have made it a commuter’s nightmare.
Stalin, after a thorough vehicular check, declared it open, ushering in two-lane, unidirectional relief that bypasses signals for key directions: Adyar to Guindy and Rajiv Gandhi Salai to Guindy.
The flyover’s signature L-curve at the intersection artfully segregates elevated and surface traffic, ensuring fluid merges without cross-interference.
This development offers profound respite to routine travelers, cutting delays and enhancing road safety. It exemplifies the DMK government’s focus on sustainable urban transport solutions.
With this milestone, South Chennai edges toward smoother mobility, setting a precedent for tackling urban congestion through innovative engineering.
