When phase-2 begins operation in another six years, commuters could circle the city touching northern and southern suburbs in about two and a half hours in a single train ride. Chennai Metro Rail Limited (CMRL) has planned a circular route that will take passengers from Madhavaram to Sholinganallur and back via Adyar on the east and CMBT on the west of Chennai, covering 81km. This circular route will link corridors 3 and 5 and is similar to the direct line operated in phase-1 linking Central Metro to Airport via CMBT across corridors 1 and 2. Work for the construction of 118.9km phase-2 has begun and is expected to be ready by 2026.
