As a state we can benefit a lot with metros.
Our population density overall is 1200 per sq km.
Our cities have to be densely populated.
A combination of Metro + RRTS throughout the state will do wonders for us.

I have been following developmental works from Bihar for a few years now. Even the construction of simple bridges or four lane roads there is almost always projected to reduce travel times by 3/4ths or an entire day or more on occassion. Just goes to show the amount of neglect the place has been subjected to. It's a similar story for the rest of the country, but to a lesser degree. Except perhaps the Northeast (which has gotten an even worse deal). What you envision will be transformative beyond everyone's wildest imaginations.

15.3 Km Metro Line Connecting Chennai Airport And Upcoming Kilambakkam Bus Terminus Gets Approval - India Infra Hub

Snapshot The Chennai Airport-Kilambakkam blue line is an extension of the already operational Corridor 1 (Washermenpet to Chennai Airport) under the Phase-I of Chennai metro. It will be built as an elevated stretch along GST road. The Airport-Kilambakkam metro line will provide a major boost to...

The proposed 15.3 km metro line connecting Chennai Airport and Kilambakkam has been approved by Chennai Unified Metropolitan Transport Authority (CUMTA), the nodal authority for implementation of transportation projects in the city.

A high powered committee of the agency has also recommended to fast track the project given that the under construction Kilambakkam Bus Terminus is likely to be commissioned early next year.

Given that the project has been approved by the nodal agency, the state government okaying the project is likely to be a formality. Once the formal nod is secured from the M.K Stalin-led DMK government, Chennai Metro Rail Ltd. (CMRL), needs to seek Centre’s approval and also work out the funding model.

As per the finalised project DPR, the construction of new metro line is estimated to cost Rs 4080 crore. CMRCL also needs to complete the land acquisition and then float the tender for the project. Given the series of steps involved, the actual project work is likely to commence by mid-2024.

In July this year, the project cleared a major hurdle with CMRL and the state highways department resolving the design issues related to the project.

The plan by state Highways department to build an elevated corridor till Tambaram threw a spanner in the works for the proposed blue line of Chennai Metro. However both the agencies have now reached an agreement over which level the viaduct of Metro Rail should be built and the height of the elevated metro corridor. The construction work on the project is likely to commence by April 2023.

The project has faced considerable delay in taking off due to the design challenges to meet both the requirements of metro and elevated corridors.

Project Details

The Chennai Airport-Kilambakkam blue line is an extension of the already operational Corridor 1 (Washermenpet to Chennai Airport) under the Phase-I of Chennai metro. It will be built as an elevated stretch along GST road.

The Airport-Kilambakkam metro line will provide a major boost to connectivity to newly emerging suburbs in the southern periphery of the city. A new bus terminus is currently under construction in Kilambakkam.

The feasibility report for Airport- Kilambakkam line was completed in 2019 by Larsen and Toubro Infrastructure Engineering. The preparation of Detailed Project Report (DPR) was delayed with CMRL submitting the DPR to the state government in early 2022.

As part of the feasibility study, three alignments were considered – a 16 km stretch along GST road, 19km stretch from GST Road (Grand Southern Trunk Road) till Tambaram and Mudichur Road and 20 km stretch that passes from Airport-Cantonment-Pallavaram Bus Stand GST Road via Hastinapuram and Tambaram West, Mudichur Road to Kilambakkam,

The CMRL, however, has finalised the GST alignment Since the proposed alignment runs parallel to the suburban train service from Beach to Tambaram, concerns were expressed that it would impact the Metro’s ridership. But CMRL decided to go for alignment along GST as it would be fully an elevated corridor and requires less land acquisition than others two options.

The 15.3-km Airport-Kilambakkam project is estimated to cost ₹4,080 crore, will run through important locations in the southern suburbs with 13 station planned at Pallavaram, Kothandam Nagar, Chromepet, Mahalakshmi Colony, Thiru Vi Ka Nagar, Tambaram, Irumbuliyur, Peerkankaranai, Perungalathur, Vandalur, Arignar Anna Zoo and Kilambakkam Bus Terminus.

Upcoming CMDA Bus Terminus In Kilambakkam

The Airport-Kilambakkam metro line will provide a major boost to connectivity to newly emerging suburbs in the southern periphery of the city.The Chennai Metropolitan Development Authority (CMDA) is constructing at bus terminus at an estimate cost of ₹394 crore in Kilambakkam, in a bid to decongest Koyambedu. The south-bound buses will start from here. With over 90% of the work on the project completed, the CMDA is hoping to inaugurate the terminal by early next year.

The new terminus, once completed, is expected to cater to about 1.5 lakh passengers with a parking space for 250 buses, 270 cars and 3,500 two-wheelers. After project completion, all buses to the southern districts would depart from Kilambakkam.

Since the upcoming parandur airport gonna be build way outside of the city limit,so building new metro to airport is bit pointless.

But,it'll help the kelambakkam commuters to be connected with existing cmrl network like connectivity point.

We have made impressive large over the head metro stations. Did not find such big stations in China. Most are on ground level or underground.

We are doing impressive work in building Metro network.

Spread a thin layer of Asphalt on concrete layer. This is how usually it is done outside India. One layer of REC and 1 thin layer of Asphalt over it.

The resulting road last real long and tires don't create much noise while running over it.

many of these are the back roads created by the private builders developing that area; without consulting the master plans of the city civil authority. Most of these roads don't get that high traffic as they are not in main areas of the city.

Even this things occur under government owned roads. Basically every department will act in a silo if someone does not get clearance. They will take their own time to do the work.

Need a single Portal for this type of Urban development. Eg. In Dholera, GIFT the roads have provisions for Underground utilities. Need that type of work from other corportations

Ya'll Nibbiars The Kolhapur airport witnessed a landmark event in the airport’s history as for the first time a 146-seater large aircraft landed at the Kolhapur airport on November 22. The Embraer E195 E2 Profit Hunter aircraft landed at 3:20 pm. The aircraft took off from Mumbai and is the largest aircraft to land at Kolhapur airport. With this landmark landing, the Kolhapur airport’s 2.7 Kms runway has proved suitable for bigger aircraft. Union Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia earlier visited Kolhapur in the first week of September, in an Embraer Legacy 650 jet engine aircraft. This was the first time in the history of Kolhapur airport that such a large capacity aircraft landed. The airport now has facilities under construction to even support the wide body aircraft.
