After dragging its feet for a few months, the Tamil Nadu Generation and Distribution Corporation (Tangedco) has finally started speeding up the work on shifting the power utilities for the Phase II of the Chennai Metro Rail project.
The work would cover underground cable network, erection of transformers, relocating overhead lines and underground cables, and the construction of substation will be shifted for the Phase 2 of the metro rail project that will connect Poonamallee, Sholinganallur and Madhavaram.
The shifting of the electricity infrastructure, which had slowed down owing to delay in finalising contractors and other issues, had picked up pace after the Chairman and Managing Director of Tangedco Rajesh Lakhoni along with senior officials organised a joint meeting with the senior officials of Chennai Metro Rail Ltd. recently.
