Chennai's Ayanavaram Road widening to begin soon

26 Nov 2012 CW Team

Chennai Corporation officials has said that road widening work of the Ayanavaram Road and Raji Street that connects Medavakkam Tank Road and New Avadi Road may finally begin by January. Already the road widening has been delayed by three-years.

If the road is widened, it will not only ease traffic congestion on this link road, but will also enable traffic flow in four lanes. To facilitate this, a traffic signal was also placed at the junction of Ayanavaram Road and Medavakkam Tank Road a few months ago.

The official said that as planned earlier work may commence in January once the monsoon ends. Sometime ago, the officials had demolished and rebuilt the old compound wall of the Institute of Mental Health and of the Chennai Metro Water Supply and Sewerage Board as it had been damaged severely during the monsoon.

A few buses may be rerouted once the road-widening process is complete, but it is too early to say which buses may take a new route, the official added.
