Posted on: 09/Sep/2013 12:36:34 PM
East Coast Road (ECR) and Old Mahabalipuram Road (OMR) will be connected soon by the Highways Department. As of now there no roads connecting OMR and ECR apart from Kalaignar Karunanidhi Road in Sholinganallur and West Avenue Road in Thiruvanmiyur. These two roads are 10km apart. The new road will begin at Neelankarai on ECR, cross Buckingham Canal and join OMR opposite the Pallavaram-Thoraipakkam Road junction.
The highways department has to acquire land at a cost of Rs 100 Crore for an estimated 42,000sqm .Around 30,000sqm of this land is owned by private individuals with legal deeds.
Once the plots are identified, land acquisition will begin. Unlike earlier projects, construction will begin only when land acquisition is completed.
