Broadway bus terminus relocation to Royapuram aims to reduce MTC trips

CHENNAI: The relocation of the Broadway bus terminus to Royapuram to facilitate the construction of an integrated multi-modal complex building at Broadway is expected to reduce the number of trips operated by the MTC. According to official sources, 840 buses are currently operated from the Broadway bus terminus across 162 routes every day connecting areas such as Tambaram, Guindy, Ennore, Tiruvottiyur, Thiruvanmiyur, Kovalam, Anna Nagar and Poonamallee. Broadway, one of MTC’s oldest bus termini, currently handles approximately 5,100 arrivals and departures every day. The proposed temporary bus stand is about 1.7 km from Broadway, whereas other nearby bus stands such as Anna Square and Foreshore Estate are located 3 km and 8 km respectively.
