The Tiruchi City Corporation has called for tenders for Phase I of the 10-km link road from Panjapur to Kudamuriti river.
The 10-km link road will be developed along the banks of Koraiyar and Kudamuriti rivers to connect the upcoming Integrated Bus Terminus in Panjapur with various residential areas of the city.
The project will be executed in three phases, Panjapur to Kasilingam bridge, Allithurai to MGR statue and Kuzhumayee Amman temple to Kudamuriti river. The entire project is expected to cost around ₹340 crore.
A sum of ₹68 crore had been sanctioned under the Tamil Nadu Urban Development Fund (TNUDF) to develop the link road from Kuzhumayee Amman temple to Kudamuriti river. The civic body had sought external funding for the other phases.
The civic body had floated a tender to finalise the contractor. “Tender will be awarded soon and work will be commenced within two months. The project would be completed within 18 months from the commencement of work,” said Corporation Commissioner V. Saravanan.
The 9-metre wide road will have an elevated carriageway at five key locations. These elevated stretches are planned for the railway level-crossing near Edamalaipatti Pudur, Tiruchi-Dindigul highway near Karumandapam, Kuzhumayee Amman temple, Vayalur Road, and Karur NH near Kudamuriti.
Of the three phases, the road between Allithurai and the MGR statue requires about nine acres of land acquisition. A senior official said a detailed survey to measure and evaluate the land would be launched and notices would then be served to the landowners. Once the process was over, tenders would be issued for other phases.

Against the backdrop of intense poll activity, a 400-metre stretch of an arterial road in the outskirts of Chennai (technically in Madurapakkam panchayat under Tambaram assembly constituency) presents a salute to the idea of res publica, which underpins India’s system of governance, where citizens have a say, at least before a government is securely ensconced in the seat of power.
