Chennai | Friday | 25th May, 2018

Summary:

Residents of Vanuvampet and surrounding areas boarding MTC buses at Vanuvampet bus stop, Medavakkam Main Road, near Veerangal Odai, have requested the officials of the Greater Chennai Corporation to re-locate the bus stop. Road, buses 154B (Nanganallur – Poonamallee) and 72 (Nanganallur - Chennai Mofussil Bus Terminus) halt. “The bus stop lacks a shelter and a stream of hot air blows from the eatery, forcing commuters to stand in the open and on the carriageway. Due to the extension of Veerangal Odai, a channel built to drain rainwater into Pallikaranai marshland, the buses halt near the newly-extended bridge, a few yards from the designated bus stop. Buses M14 (Saidapet - Medavakkam Koot Road), 14M (NGO Colony - Medavakkam Koot Road), 76 (Medavakkam Koot Road - Chennai Mofussil Bus Terminus), 76B (Ottiyambakkam - Chennai Mofussil Bus Terminus) and B51 (East Tambaram - T.

Nagar) ply on the stretch..
