CMRL Awards Contract for Thirumangalam Complex

Chennai Metro Rail Limited (CMRL) has awarded a 447 crore rupee contract to Capacite Infra for the construction of a commercial complex at Thirumangalam. This project is set to become India’s first building designed with metro trains running directly through its floors.

The development will feature three nine-story towers integrated with a two-story metro station. The architectural design allows for train operations to pass through the fourth to sixth floors of the structure. The total built-up area is approximately 6.85 lakh square feet.

The facility is planned to house office and retail spaces, along with a three-level underground parking area.
