Starting December 22, 2024, the Greater Chennai Traffic Police (GCTP) will implement trial traffic modifications at Madhya Kailash Junction, Chennai to address ongoing congestion caused by bridge construction.
As part of the new arrangement:
- Adyar to Guindy Route Diversion: Vehicles heading from Adyar to Guindy will be diverted at CPT Junction towards OMR. These vehicles can proceed 400 meters, take a U-turn near CPT Polytechnic College, Tharamani, and return to CPT Junction to continue towards their destination.
- No Changes in Other Directions: Traffic flow from Guindy to Adyar or OMR remains unchanged.
- MTC Bus Services: Buses from OMR to Guindy will drop passengers at a designated separate lane at the rear side of Madhya Kailash Temple to ensure uninterrupted service.
The changes aim to minimize congestion and improve traffic flow at CPT Junction. Authorities have urged motorists and the public to cooperate during this trial period.
