The officials of the Chennai Metro Rail have said that they will up the anti when it comes to work on the stretch from Little Mount to Chennai airport over the next six months. 

Most of the track work in this corridor is over; the remaining work will also be complete in a few months. Following this, overhead electrical work will be taken up. We are hoping to launch the commercial operations in six months, they say. 

The original plan to start the work only between Little Mount and Nanganallur Road station has been expanded to the entire stretch. We realised this will not make too much of a difference; so, we have decided to commence operations till Chennai airport itself... Soon after the works are complete, we will call the Commissioner, Metro Rail Safety, to conduct the safety inspection and once we get the approval, the services will begin, they say.
