The Chennai ORR - Sriperumbadur contract has also been called for along with this project and it is of 13 KM (2.5 yrs for completion). If both the projects kick off at the same time, and there are no delays, this could be the FIRST elevated corridor in Tamilnadu!!!
The Maduravoyil - Port elevated road is being revived with DPR in progress. It could take more time to complete.

^^ Yes. I also have the same thought. But, if you see that is the difference between the SG and CG planning / implementation. All the other busy stretches we are talking about are in the hands of state govt and they take forever to implement a project. Even in chennai, the SG controlled projects are poorly planned and executed (usman road flyover).
SG lacks long term thinking and they would wake up only after the problem has got very much beyond hands. Madurai ring road is one such example which got attention after much hue and cry.
Anyways, I am happy this is happening and this could lead city to develop beyond umachikulam in a faster rate. With people able to fly in and out (pun intended) of the city in matter of minutes, that area is something that will grow faster.

Nice catch Senthil. I always have thought Mattuthavani / Melur to be North of Madurai, but just now realized they are on the Northeast and Natham is more true North. As Arul pointed out, this highway will take in the traffic from Dindugal as well.The current Madurai - dindugal alignment is slightly curved towards west and this road should be an alternative for both traffic coming in from Northeast and Northwest direction.

looks good. With heavy commercialization, the lower level is going to be heavily congested with half to one-lane being occupied by vehicles for parking and only one lane being available for traffic.
