CMDA to develop areas along Outer Ring Road

Reports indicate that the Chennai Metropolitan Development Authority (CMDA) feels the areas along the Outer Ring Road (ORR) as potential areas for future growth and hence it plans to develop them.

In this regard, the CMDA may prepare a detailed development plan (DDP) for the areas adjoining the 62.3 km-long ORR.

The proposed plan would focus on the grid of roads, aiming at good connectivity to the outer ring road, inter linkages and future requirements of physical and social infrastructure.

The ORR connects NH 45 (GST Road) at Vandalur, NH 4 (GWT Road) at Nazarathpet, NH 205 (CTH Road) at Nemilicherry (Thiruninravur), NH 5 (GNT Road) at Nallur and TPP road at Minjur.

Coincidentally, Ennore Port plans to develop a passenger-cum-freight railway line, linking Ennore to Vandalur on the ORR stretch, which planners feel will generate interest among the real estate developers.

Besides, the state government is also planning to build an inter-city satellite bus terminal in Vandalur for South-bound buses.

Meanwhile, the CMDA may not develop a detailed development plan for Ambattur, which it feels has already developed. Ambattur was among the five peri-urban areas, for which the CMDA planned to develop DDPs more than four years after the Second Master Plan came into being.
