Railway- Demands are being received for providing rail link to the developing industrial centers at Sriperumbudur,
Oragadam and Irungattukottai. Accordingly, construction of new line between Avadi and Guduvancherry via
Sriperumbudur with a spur from Sriperumbudur to Irungattukottai is proposed to be taken up. This line would also
provide...
more... an alternative route avoiding the already congested Chennai area. People traveling to aforesaid industrial
centers and other offices in the area would get a cheaper mode of transportation. Government of Tamil Nadu have
also consented to share 50% cost of Sriperumbudur-Guduvancherry with Spur to Irungattukottai new line. It is
therefore proposed to take up this work at an anticipated cost of Rs.83,900.00 lakh with an outlay of Rs.10.00 lakh
during 2013-14
