Southern Railway has decided to introduce peak-hour ladies specials twice a day in the suburban sectors and in the Mass Rapid Transit
System (MRTS).
The date when the services will begin is yet to be announced.
On the Tambaram-Chennai Beach sector, the ladies special will leave Tambaram at 8.37 am and reach Chennai Beach at 9.32 am. In the return direction, it will leave Chennai Beach at 5.57 pm and reach Tambaram at 6.52 pm.
On the Arakonam-Chennai sector, it will leave Arakonam at 7 am and reach Chennai Beach at 8.55 am. It will leave Chennai Beach at 5.50 pm and arrive at Arakonam at 8.05 pm. On the MRTS sector, it will leave Chennai Beach at 9 am and reach Velachery at 9.40 am. It will leave Velachery at 5.05 pm and reach Chennai Beach at 5.45 pm.
Southern Railway will also introduce an additional Thirumalpur-Kancheepuram-Chennai Beach service at 7.50 am since the 7.20 service from Kancheepuram is crowded, said a press release.
A new Tirumalpur-Kancheepuram-Chennai Beach service will be introduced at 5.10 pm. Following complaints that the last EMU from Beach to Kancheepuram leaves too early, at 7.08 pm, the railways will introduce a new one at 8.15 pm.
Thirty-six special EMU services will be run on the Chennai Beach-Tambaram sector on Sundays from July 26 for the Aadi' shopping season.
