Disclaimer: People not very well aware of Chennai will not be able to relate to this post.
With IT growth affecting all quarters and all places , how can Chennai be left behind. But what scares me is the area where the growth is happening. The so called urbanization is happening in Arcot Road, which is barely 30 ft road on each side of the road divider and is open for two way traffic. I already see the construction of a multiplex theatre , a purvankara project a prestige group project going on , on this road. Traffic is already at its peak in this road, one wonders how will this road be able to manage the heavy traffic which these structures will generate.
Is Chennai growing the wrong way? Is Chennai not learning from the mistakes of Bangalore? Only time will tell.
Have a look at the map of Arcot Road.
