The Chennai Metro Rail project activities are in full swing. The public services are being introduced as and when the project activities on the track are completed in a gradual manner.
Presently CMRL services are available in 2 sections – Nehru Park-Koyambedu, St. Thomas Mount and Little Mount-Airport.
The track-laying and most other works have been completed in the section between Anna Salai DMS-Saidapet. The work in the section Nehru Park-Central is also completed.
So, there are plans to commence the public service on the above 2 sections from March. Presently, arrangements are being made for conducting the test-runs.
Once services commence in the section Central-Nehru Park, it would be possible to reach Koyambedu (the outstation bus terminus) and the airport in fairly quick time.
