The Greater Chennai Traffic Police (GCTP), in coordination with the Greater Chennai Corporation (GCC), will study encroachments and implement necessary measures to streamline traffic flow, police sources said.

Velachery 100ft Road, a crucial link between Velachery Main Road and Vijayanagar Junction, has become a major bottleneck, especially in the evenings. With multiple rows of parked vehicles occupying the road and roadside eateries drawing large crowds, commuters and pedestrians struggle to navigate the stretch.
