Chennai Metro Phase 2: Budget, Route, Maps, List Of Stations

The Union Cabinet has given its approval to the Ministry of Housing & Urban Affairs' proposal for the Chennai Metro Rail Project Phase-II, which includes three corridors.

The project is estimated to cost Rs 63,246 crore and is expected to be completed by 2027. Once operational, Phase-II will extend Chennai's Metro Rail network to 173 kilometers. The three corridors in Phase-II are as follows:

• Corridor 1: Madhavaram to SIPCOT, 45.8 km with 50 stations
• Corridor 2: Lighthouse to Poonamallee Bypass, 26.1 km with 30 stations
• Corridor 3: Madhavaram to Sholinganallur, 47 km with 48 stations

Phase-II will add 118.9 km of new metro lines, improving connectivity across Chennai. The new lines will link the northern, southern, eastern, and western parts of the city, connecting major areas such as Madhavaram, Perambur, Thirumayilai, Adyar, Sholinganallur, SIPCOT, Kodambakkam, Vadapalani, Porur, Villivakkam, Anna Nagar, and St. Thomas Mount. This will benefit industries, businesses, residential areas, and institutions, providing efficient public transport for the workforce. Additionally, expanding into fast-growing regions like Sholinganallur will cater to the needs of the burgeoning IT sector in South Chennai.
