Padi - Lucas Elevated Rotary Chennai , IndiaRoads at junction Inner Ring Road Madras-Tiruvallur High RoadType Elevated rotary Spans 100 Lanes 4 Constructed 2005–09 by National Highway Authority of India Opened 20 February 2009 (2009-02-20 )
The Padi Lucas Junction is the intersection of NH 205 (Madras-Tiruvallur High Road ) and Inner Ring Road in the city of Chennai and is one of the most important junctions in the city. It is located in Anna Nagar north of Koyambedu Junction . An elevated rotary has been constructed at this junction as part of the NHDP by NHAI to ease the traffic congestion. It was built at a cost of ₹ 1,300 million and was opened for traffic on 20 February 2009.[1]
Grade separator
[ edit ]
The junction is used by hundreds of heavy vehicles and the road has a traffic density of about 200,000 passenger car units daily.[2] As of 2014, more than 70,000 vehicles use the Padi flyover every day.[3] To ease the congestion, the NHAI has constructed an elevated four-lane rotary at the junction. Work on the project began in 2005 and completed in 2009.
Ramps
A total of six ramps and an elevated rotary with 100 spans[4] form part of the elevated structure.
Along IRR
Four ramps on each side of the IRR and on both sides of the grade separator.
The ramps are all two-laned and are for One-way traffic .
Along MTH Road
Two ramps along the median of the MTH road on both sides of the grade separator.
The two ramps on MTH road are all four-laned with a median for two-way traffic.
The ramp on the north of the grade separator on MTH road crosses a railway line.
An elevated 4-laned rotary at the center connects all the 6 ramps and has an outer radius of 99 metres.[5]
Landscaping
[ edit ]
There is a 15,000 sq m space around the grade separator where landscaping works will be taken up in 2013 at a cost of ₹ 10 million.[6]
