The Chennai Corporation is all set to carry out road infrastructure projects in Ambattur zone soon. The Corporation council passed a resolution to this effect recently. With a portion of the funds falling under zone-level allocation in the Mega City Development Mission, 170 roads in Ambattur zone measuring about 22.79 km would be re-laid at an approximate cost of Rs.14.95 crore. The works were divided into sections and tenders floated accordingly.

Of the extended areas, Ambattur zone was the most significant beneficiary of the Mega City Development Mission with an allotment of Rs.86.44 crore. A total of 70 roads extending to a length of 56.07 km were covered and Rs.55.31 crore was spent on road relaying and Rs.20.10 crore was spent on storm water drains.
