[Thiruchchirappalli Villupuram Chordline Rail Users @TPJCLDemands]

High time the Viluppuram–Tiruchchirappalli Chord Line gets the attention it deserves

A major spine railway corridor having with just 2 shuttle services a day is concerning where it is just treated as a passing route instead of Addressing its own demands. Chordline is being hindered from serving Potential stations like Srirangam, Pichandarkovil, Lalgudi, Pullambadi, Dalmiapuram, Sendurai, Mathur, Pennadam, Ulundurpettai, Parikkal & Tiruvennainallur Road End up suffering from lack of Shuttle srervics.

Introduce Shuttle trains from:-
1. Tiruchi jn to Cuddalore port jn
2. Vriddachalam jn to Puducherry
3. Vriddachalam jn to Tiruchi jn
4. Vriddachalam jn to Salem jn
5. Tiruchi jn to Villupuram jn
6. Tiruchi to Chinnasalem jn
7. An Express train From Tiruchi jn to Salem jn via Vriddachalam jn that would connect Ariyalur dt with Major part of Salem District.

@DRMTPJ @GMSRailway @SalemDRM
Demand is clear. Chordline Requires better utilisation of the line by providing more dedicated trains.

Just 4 pit lines in western TN, generates Rs 1000 cr ticket revenue to SR, build 4 more pit lines, Rs 2000 cr ticket revenue assured & benefits more people.

Maintenance facility is required to start/ restore train services.

Eventually, Coimbatore, Tiruppur, Erode, and Salem together already form the biggest urban agglomeration in South India and will soon develop into one of the biggest UAs in India

[The Salem New @TheSalemNew]

#Salem's suburban areas are rapidly urbanised.

More satellite urban towns are making around Salem like #Omalur, #Tharamangalam, #Ilampilllai, #Kakkapalayam, #Magudanchavadi, #Attayampatti, #Vennandur (Namakkal) and #Mallur.

Also the phase 1 #RingRoad is planned along these satellite towns.

In addition, Number of #Urban Villages are also higher around Salem, it will make Salem, A biggest Urban Center in future.

In this view, we need Salem Urban Development Authority as soon as possible for planned development.
