Paliyekara toll plaza may go barrier-free in push to ease traffic snarls
The district collector has asked the National Highways Authority of India to review the barrier‑free toll system implemented at Tambaram, hoping to alleviate congestion at the Paliyekara toll plaza. Officials have ordered a physical inspection to assess safety, drainage and street‑lighting shortfalls before any changes are made. Traffic congestion has increased, and officials hope the barrier‑free model will improve flow.
