The Southern Railway plans to link the Mass Rapid Transit System (MRTS) from Velachery to St. Thomas Mount railway station by 2022, bringing to an end the long- delayed extension project.
The MRTS extension project has been pending for several years because of legal hurdles in acquiring a 500 m stretch of land near the St. Thomas Mount railway station.
