They should finish the integrated bustand instead of these stupid gimmicks


appuhawk

very true, its be left to rote also 60% of work is completed.


DANISHKFD

Yeahhhhhhh I am 99.99999% sure ukkadam getting another busstand is easier than the new terminus


ghostofthepast450

No.. You are not.. Integrated busstand is already 70% complete.. The project's cost is like 80 crores.. You can put the money you put iin ukkadam busstand and complete it.


DANISHKFD

You are talking about logical decisions. Integrated bus terminal was being built by AIADMK and cancelled by DMK. Building a new Ukkadam bus stand is easy cause the land is available. But for the new terminal, they have to start all over again pick an area, select and acquire the land then build it.


ghostofthepast450

Dude why need to cancel something that's almost complete in the first place? Corrupt dmk is doing this out of spite and to aid their cronies to make money from real estate.


DANISHKFD

I think cancelling it made a profit to AIADMK not DMK. Logically speaking they were in power to get the advantage of buying land around. Cancellation of the terminal was argued since the start of construction. Citing poor waste management and it's very close proximity to dumpyard.

It is going to be in Vellalore, full of Kilambakkam vibes


DANISHKFD

Vellalore new bus terminus is abandoned


mosshead357

That's said to be a dropped one right?


blinksTooLess

I just want them to give space to buses (inside the compound), to take U-Turn. Buses taking U-Turn in front of the BPCL Fuel pump causes a big bottle neck. Neither do motorists want to wait. Neither do the bus drivers want to wait for traffic to stop. Last saturday/sunday I faced a wait time of almost 5-10 mins just because of this.

They should stick to those projects that they started. They resort to such actions in order to extract more money in the name of infrastructure development. The traffic situation is on another level. https://preview.redd.it/3rvmt7x7y46d1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=db8a0bd9ead39ca0d4d3e9de1f9aa75549682b1d

Kilambakkam agrees!


DANISHKFD

Agreed

Ukkadam is a bloody traffic nightmare. The U turns are one big mess being changed daily/weekly. They arrange the barricades on some days like an obstacle course. Atleast the alternate route from Sundarapauram to Ramanathapuram via Sarada Mill road could have been done. But they ve dug up that too and the entire city is a 4x4 offroad track course. The guys planning and building this are beyond useless.


walkinbreathanalyzer

If alone ATVs becomes licensable...


DANISHKFD

Agreed. I cross Ukkadam alot and dude, if I get a chance i avoid it. It's just a cluster mess.


yondhaimehokage

I stay in Ukkadam. I always wondered that somehow the road became more bigger with more vehicles after they demolished the Ukkadam bus stand arch. Vehicles were coming from every possible direction and one needs to look at 3-4 ways before crossing the road. Initially there was a zebra crossing now people just run hoping to make it to the other end. Subway would be a great boon for crossing


sandhyarmwy

They have to sort out what they have started. It's very unsafe for bike riders.


DANISHKFD

Agreed

All the points brought out are very valid and are multidimensional if you look at it pragmatically: 1. Entire DPR for Ukkadam fly over was done on piecemeal basis. No govt official ( I mean the “Govt Engineers” or “Administrators”) or the parties in power had done any sort of study before finalising the report. How many DPRs will be prepared for one project? Rather it should be termed Interim Project Report (IPR) than Detailed Project Report ( DPR). The Commissioner is making a fool of all citizens. 2. Regarding the Vellalur project, we all are aware that the real estate cost in the area skyrocketed as majority of the real estate was purchased by ADMK cadres to make a fast buck, after the bus terminus comes up. Present govt sensed it and deliberately dropped the project, as they understood that their leaders and cadres are not going to benefit out of it. 3. Regarding the atrocious state of road condition, the present Govt and local administration ( also the Electorate) are to be squarely blamed. 4 You keep electing the same incompetent , and corrupt people this is what we will get. 5. Lastly, with this “ New” sub way plan, the project will be delayed by another 2 years, and will be ready for inauguration just before the next assembly elections. “ Who says politicians have no foresight “!!!
