CHENNAI: Chennai has been waiting for the much delayed six-lane elevated corridor connecting Maduravoyal and Chennai Port for over decade now. As the work on the project is finally set to resume again, Express reliably learnt from official sources that the elevated corridor may be out of bounds for most of the Chennaiites.
The National Highways Authority of India wants the local traffic be not allowed or only for those who will be ready to pay a steep toll. Sources in the authority told Express that the corridor will reach its saturation level in just 10 to 12 years, if the local traffic are to be permitted. Hence, only container lorries headed to the Chennai port would be given access once the corridor is completed.
