T.N. Assembly election: This densely populated area sees signs of progress even as some civic issues linger

Traffic rarely eases across the Maduravoyal Assembly constituency in Tiruvallur district. From Arcot Road to Poonamallee High Road, queues of vehicles, bottlenecks at junctions and diversions caused by ongoing infrastructure work have become part of daily routine for residents and commuters alike.

Set along Chennai’s western corridor, the constituency comprises neighbourhoods such as Maduravoyal, Nerkundram, Nolambur, Vanagaram, Alapakkam, Porur, and parts of Valasaravakkam. As a result of being located along key arterial roads, the constituency has evolved into an important corridor linking Chennai with its expanding suburbs, alongside witnessing steady residential growth over the years.
