Chennai Floats Tenders For Four-Kilometre Elevated Corridor Project

The Highways Department in Chennai has invited consultants to prepare a detailed project report for a four-kilometre elevated corridor from Lighthouse to Thiru. Vi. Ka. Bridge.

Proposed to decongest Santhome High Road, the corridor will run via Greenways Road and Durgabai Deshmukh Road, featuring two lanes for 1.8 km and four lanes for the rest.

The project is estimated to cost up to ₹400 crore for construction alongside ₹1,000 crore for land acquisition, and will take two years to complete.
