CONSTRUCTION WING

The regular Engineering Departments like PWD, Highways, Housing Board, Slum clearance Board, Metro water, TWAD Board, etc., are involved in the implementation of their own specified nature of work. But after the formation of a Developmental Authority for Chennai namely CMDA the prime objective of this organization was the decongestion of the Central Business District (CBD). To achieve this goal, the concept of New Town in the periphery of Chennai , shifting of the wholesale trade activity out side CBD, formation of Truck terminal on all major corridor entering the city, relocating the Bus Terminus etc., were planned. Since the above said agencies were not involved in such infrastructure development, CMDA took up these projects by having its own Engineering Wing during 1984.

The projects handled by this wing are:
