Prime Minister Narendra Modi aur CM C. Joseph Vijay ne aaj Chennai Metro ke naye **15-km** stretch ka inauguration kiya. Ye project **₹4,900 Crore** ki laagat se bana hai aur isme **11** naye stations hain.
Poonamallee se Vadapalani tak ka ye naya corridor Chennai Metro ke Phase II ka bahut bada hissa hai. Is pure project mein ₹4,900 Crore ka kharcha aaya hai. Sabse cool baat ye hai ki isme 3.7-km ka double-decker structure banaya gaya hai, jo future mein driverless trains chalane ke kaam aayega.
Infrastructure sector ke liye kya maayne hain?
Chennai ke IT aur manufacturing hubs ko connect karne ke liye ye metro line ek game changer sabit ho sakti hai. Sarkar ka focus urban mobility par hai, jiska fayda sidha construction aur engineering companies ko mil raha hai. Jab sarkar itna bada capital project complete karti hai, toh regional productivity badhne ke chances kaafi high hote hain.
Investors ke liye track karne wali baatein
Abhi inaugurate toh ho gaya, lekin asli test hoga ridership ka. Mass transit systems mein operational costs kaafi zyada hoti hain, isliye ye dekhna zaroori hoga ki kitne log private vehicles chhod kar metro use karte hain. Phase II ke baki bache hue projects ki timeline par bhi nazar rakhna padega kyunki purane delays ne pehle bhi projects ke cost aur margins ko asar kiya hai.
