Southern Railway proposes new Perambur terminal to ease Chennai congestion

The New Indian Express · · Infrastructure

Southern Railway plans a greenfield terminal at Perambur near Chennai Central to divert 35-40% of trains, but passengers and rail experts oppose citing operational disruptions to suburban services.

Key facts

Southern Railway has proposed a new greenfield terminal at Perambur, 7 km from Chennai Central, to ease congestion at the main station. The proposal was recently approved by general manager RN Singh and has received in-principle approval from the railway board, though the Detailed Project Report has not been finalised.

Intended train shifts: 35-40% of trains from Chennai Central, including Shatabdi and Vande Bharat services bound for Thiruvananthapuram and Bengaluru, will be relocated to the new terminal.

Operational concerns raised:

  • Shifting express trains to Perambur would require suburban trains to halt between Perambur and Villivakkam to access the fast line
  • Railway would need to interchange slow and fast lines, requiring relocation of amenities including toilets, eateries, water plants and offices at en-route stations
  • Restoration of suburban operations could take 15-20 years
  • 2016 Commissioner of Railway Safety report recommended avoiding frequent fast/slow line shifts to reduce accident risks after a Pattabiram collision
  • MTC buses may struggle to access the terminal due to heavy traffic on Konnur High Road

Alternative proposal: Rail Users Consultative Committee member suggested developing the terminal near Tiruvallur, which is connected to the suburban network with available land.

This follows the stalled Tambaram terminal project, ongoing for seven years without completion.
