The Chennai Metropolitan Development Authority (CMDA) is planning to take corrective action on the skywalk project at the Kalaignar Centenary Bus Terminus (KCBT) in Kilambakkam.
The ₹79-crore skywalk is designed to connect the bus terminus with the new halt railway station located across GST Road. The project aims to make it easier for commuters to move between the bus terminus and the railway station safely.
However, people on social media have been sharing pictures of the skywalk that show potential safety concerns. Some of these images suggest that the structure could be dangerous for users, which has raised questions about the design and safety of the project.
In response, the CMDA has said it will review the skywalk and take necessary corrective steps to ensure the safety of commuters. Officials are expected to inspect the structure soon and address any issues that could pose a risk.
Commuters have expressed hope that the authorities will quickly fix the problems so that the skywalk can be used safely, as it is an important link for people traveling between the bus terminus and the railway station.
The CMDA has also assured the public that the project will meet safety standards and that any structural concerns will be resolved before the skywalk is opened for full public use.
