Heavy traffic congestion has been reported in Tambaram as a large number of people are leaving Chennai to travel to their hometowns ahead of the elections.

The GST Road stretch from Tambaram to Kilambakkam has been severely affected, with vehicles moving at a snail’s pace due to the sudden surge in traffic. The rush is primarily driven by voters heading out of the city to cast their votes in their native places.

Long queues of cars, buses, and other vehicles have led to significant delays, causing inconvenience to commuters. Authorities are closely monitoring the situation and taking steps to regulate traffic flow.

The congestion highlights the massive scale of election-related travel from Chennai, with thousands of residents hitting the roads simultaneously to participate in the democratic process.
