Chennai Peripheral Ring Road Project is proposed to provide better connectivity to Ennore and Kattupalli ports and to provide better connectivity around the Chennai with provisions for Intelligent Transport System (ITS) to enhance the efficiency and road safety.
The formation of Chennai Peripheral Ring Road (CPRR) is conceptualized to enhance the highway capacity, provide better transport connectivity and provide efficient commercial transportation to ports by linking 4 principal radial arterials, viz. NH 16 (Chennai - Kolkatta National Highway), NH 716 (Chennai – Tirupathi National Highway), NH 48 (Chennai - Bangalore National Highway) and NH 32 (Chennai - Trichy National Highway).
Chennai Peripheral Ring Road is taken up into 5 Sections, having a length of 132.87 Km
