Adviser to the Prime Minister T.K.A. Nair announced on Friday that the TNRDC (tamil Nadu Road Development Corporation) will construct approach roads near Ennore.

Speaking to the press, Mr. Nair said, ‘The TNRDC will undertake a composite contract for constructing approach roads and a road overbridge at Athippattu near Ennore… The capacity of the existing bridge at Athippattu is only 300 tonnes and the Japanese company Toshiba is in the process of setting up a turbine and generator plant near Ennore. The new bridge will be constructed as the existing bridge will not be able to handle the capacity of turbines that weigh nearly 500 tonnes… Usually, the State government lays the approach roads and the bridge across the railway tracks is taken care of by the railways. But, considering the urgency in the matter it was decided to entrust the work to the TNRDC.’
