Posted on: 05/Jun/2014 11:14:00 AM
In a memorandum submitted to PM Modi, Ms Jayalalithaa said the extension of corridor-I of Metro Rail Project up to Tiruvottiyur and Wimco Nagar covering a distance of 9.051 km at an estimated updated completion cost of Rs 3,253 crore is pending approval of the government of India.
She said the three corridors have been identified for implementation under phase-II at an estimated cost of Rs 36,100 crore and demanded “full support” of the Centre.
“Integration of the Chennai MRTS with the Metro Rail is desirable and feasible as the MRTS has been substantially funded by the state government. Such integration would enable effective synergies between various modes of public transport and increase share of public transport. The issue is now under the consideration of railway board and the ministry of railways,” she said in the memorandum.
