New foot overbridge to enhance Guindy MRTS accessibility
The Greater Chennai Corporation has issued a tender to build a new foot overbridge at Guindy MRTS Station. This project will replace an old bridge that does not meet safety standards. The new bridge will feature lifts and stairs, connecting all five platforms to entrances on Race Course Road and G.S.T. Road. The estimated cost is ₹9.86 crore, with completion expected in one year. This initiative is part of the World Bank-funded Chennai City Partnership program. It aims to enhance pedestrian access for the thousands of daily commuters at the station.
