Development

In 2010, a modernisation project aimed at decongesting the bus terminus was proposed by the Chennai Metropolitan Development Authority, under which 250 bus bays will be constructed. The 2,190-million proposal also included a three-level bus bay, including a basement floor, with 81,749 sq m commercial space, an idle parking of 150 buses in the basement, 75 operational bays on the ground floor, and 25 bays on the first floor.

Upon completion, the terminus will have 14,417 sq m of terminal area, 16,598 sq m of idle parking area, 4,010 sq m of driveways, 28,606 sq m of commercial office space, 9,548 sq m of retail space, and 8,570 sq m of hotel space.
