In a bid to enhance traffic flow and streamline movement between Saidapet and Nandanam, the Greater Chennai Traffic Police (GCTP) has announced a temporary traffic modification set to be implemented from November 17, 2023. The trial, lasting one week, introduces a new "U" turn opposite M.C. Raja Hostel, offering an alternative route for vehicles in the specified areas.
As part of the modification, vehicles heading from Nandanam junction towards T. Nagar are now restricted from taking a right turn at CIT Nagar 1st Main Road X Anna Salai junction. Instead, drivers are encouraged to proceed 50 meters straight and utilize the newly established "U" turn near M.C. Raja Hostel to reach their intended destination.
Similarly, vehicles originating from Saidapet face restrictions on making a right turn towards Todd Hunter Nagar PWD Quarters at Jones Road Junction. The alternative route suggests proceeding 50 meters straight and utilizing the newly designated "U" turn for a smoother journey to their destination.
This trial modification aims to assess the effectiveness of the introduced changes in alleviating traffic congestion and enhancing commuter convenience. The GCTP encourages motorists to adapt to the temporary alterations and provide feedback on the impact of the new traffic pattern.
