As an initiative to decongest traffic flow at Gandhi Mandapam junction, the Greater Chennai Traffic Police (GCTP) has begun to implement traffic changes on a trial-basis from Wednesday (May 20, 2025).

All vehicles including MTC buses coming from Raj Bhavan towards Madhya Kailash on Sardar Patel Road should now take the Gandhi Mandapam (IIT) flyover.

Vehicles entering Gandhi Mandapam service road will have to take a compulsory left turn at Gandhi Mandapam junction and are not allowed to proceed straight (towards Madhya Kailash).

To enable these changes, CLRI Bus stop has been shifted a little ahead towards Adyar from the existing location, said the GCTP.
