@UpdatesChennai This move is a Double edged sword.
Govt must be cautious and ensure this move won't hinder us in long term from developing a green field airport.. even if it's near Arakkonam or Thindivanam😂

[Chennai Updates @UpdatesChennai]

Chennai's loss is Hyderabad, Bengaluru and Pune's gain and not Madurai or Coimbatore or Trichy. The day the TN Govt understands this is when the city can regain its mojo in GCC & Tech scene!!

This is why creating factual, research-driven content on social media is frustrating.

The viral narrative claiming the Anna Salai flyover had to be "redesigned midway" because engineers "forgot the metro and suddenly invented portal frames" is factually false.

1. Portal frames over the metro stations were part of the project plan from Day 1. Anyone can verify this by checking the official 3D concept renders released back in July 2023.

2. Adjusting column placements and adding portal frames to suit road geometry, underground utilities, and diaphragm load paths is standard engineering execution—it is called a “Structural Design Modification” or “Design Change Request (DCR)”, depending on the stage of the process.

Before claiming a "₹621 Cr waste" or spreading panic for clicks and ad revenue, creators—especially licensed architects—should fact-check the original DPR visuals readily available in the public domain.

My original video explaining the complex engineering behind this flyover has barely touched a lakh views. Why? Because I didn’t invent a "₹621 Cr Scam," accuse our engineers of monumental blunders, or slap sensationalist panic on the thumbnail.

Indha katchanathula evanunga want to build a new terminal and elevated road with pillars on the Adyar River in Chennai 🤦🤦

[Chennai Updates @UpdatesChennai]

Projects irundha dhane borrowing eh. Cancelled whatever little infra projects we had in pipeline and now proudly claiming this...🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

[Venks @TheVenks]

🛫 Building greenfield airport infrastructure over a manmade lake network with an engineered solution is an issue🤷🏽‍♂️

😏But the wet dream of building Terminal 5, albeit a useless expansion, right over a natural river floodplain right in the middle of dense city area is a flood-proof idea 🤦🏽‍♂️

Special Mention to former CMs @EPSTamilNadu and @mkstalin for continuing to pursue the Chennai Metro Ph-2 amid covid and funding delays. Executed at a very good pace...🙌🙏

They are not building flyover across the river, they are trying to build fly over along the river and on the river. There is difference btw bridge across the river and bridge along the river and bridge on the river along its path. They are doing the third

[Chennai Updates @UpdatesChennai]

Some plz explain how's this beneficial to the state??? Freebies after freebies.

[Chennai Updates @UpdatesChennai]

This will only get worse from here on. We had a small glimmer of hope in the last 2 years with newer fleets, Electric buses and other initiatives...🤧
