Southern Railway is set to introduce additional train services between Velachery and Parangimalai (St. Thomas Mount) in Chennai following a steady increase in passenger traffic on the MRTS corridor.

After the recent extension of the Velachery–Parangimalai line, the route has witnessed a significant rise in daily commuters, especially office-goers and students. The improved connectivity across key areas in South Chennai has made this corridor an important part of the city’s public transport network.

Railway authorities are now planning to increase the number of train services to manage peak-hour rush and reduce waiting time for passengers. The move is expected to ease congestion and provide a more convenient travel experience.

With more trains likely to be introduced soon, commuters on this route can look forward to smoother and more efficient daily travel.
