: The Metropolitan Transport Corporation on Wednesday launched a new service connecting T. Nagar and Tirupporur near Mahabalipuram, signalling the extension of the radius of the Corporation's operation from 40 km to 50 km.
The bus service would be operated as `Yellow Line' route.
Another similar service would be operated between Maraimalai Nagar and T. Nagar (route number 118) as a `Blue Line' service. The T. Nagar-Tirupporur (No. 119) would stop at Kalavakkam, Kelambakkam, Navaloor, Shozhinganallur, Thorappakkam, Perungudi, Madhya Kailash, Anna University, and Saidapet.
