CHENNAI: The Phase-1 extension of Chennai Metro Rail is expected to improve commuting in north Chennai by cutting down on travel time and reducing congestion on roads.
The nine km extension line, which runs from Washermenpet to Wimco Nagar, covers the majority of congested areas in north Chennai. Trial runs are ongoing and the stretch is expected to open for the public by January.
According to rough estimates from Google Maps, it normally takes about 30 to 45 minutes to cover this stretch by road during peak hours. The average speed of vehicles on roads here would also be around 30 to 40 km per hour.
