Points raised / Suggestion made

Remarks given

(1)   Thiru Rajagopal, Ambattur.

Ambattur Industrial Estate should also be declared as I.T. Corridor as a number of I.T buildings such as TCS, HCL are functioning.  The present Industrial Estate Bus Stand  should be shifted to a spacious place.

Ambattur Industrial Estate is already an   Industrial area wherein I.T. developments are permissible and hence it is not necessary to declare as I.T. Corridor.  The IT Corridor declaration on either side of the Old Mahabalipuram Road (OMR) is proposed to allow I.T. developments in the area irrespective of land use zoning.  Regarding the Bus stand, the Local Body to take note of.  

Roads should be maintained in Mogappair and link road should be developed from Mogappair to  Poonamallee High Road.
Basic facilities should be provided.
Unauthorised constructions should be removed.

Adequate linkage through net work of roads proposed in the Draft Master   Plan-II.
Other suggestions were  general in nature and taken note of.
