Previously the DMK member and former Minister K. Ponmudi wanted to know from the Highways Minister what happened to the Port-Maduravoyal Elevated Corridor and in reply, Minister Edappadi K. Palaniswami has said that as per the agreement between the PWD and NHAI, the corridor should come up along the banks of Cooum River.
