Monorail to connect Vandalur & Poonamallee via Kathipara

Posted on: 05/Feb/2014 4:56:19 PM

The government`s realigned monorail route will connect Poonamallee in the northwest of Chennai and Vandalur far south through two corridors that will meet near the Kathipara intersection.

The first corridor work will begin in August. The 21km corridor will link Poonamallee and Kathipara, via Kumaranchavadi, Porur and Nandambakkam, with a wishbone line forking off to Vadapalani.

Monorail will provide a mass transit system to the densely populated Porur along the first corridor and, on the second line, Medavakkam, neighbourhoods bypassed by MRTS and the suburban rail network.

The alignment for the second corridor between Vandalur and Kathipara, via Perungalathur, Irumbuliyur, Tambaram East, Sembakkam, Medavakkam and Velacherry is expected to be announced shortly.

The first corridor will meet the metro rail corridors at Vadapalani and Kathipara. The second will meet the main MRTS depot at Tambaram and metro rail corridor at Kathipara.

This project will give a fillip to business prospects in the locality.
