Chief Minister M. K. Stalin on Saturday inaugurated two flyovers - one at Vijayanagar junction in Velachery and the other at Perungalathur, replacing LC 32 over the railway lines, running parallel to GST Road.
He threw open the facilities constructed at a total cost of ₹105 crore via video conferencing during an event held at the Secretariat.
The two projects were long-pending demands of residents in the respective areas. The 915 metre long Velachery flyover, which is level one of a pair of flyovers, would allow motorists heading from Velachery bypass side to Tambaram. The second level is already open for traffic. The flyovers were constructed to reduce traffic congestion at the extremely busy junction.
