DLF IT SEZ - at the epicentre of new emerging city centre at Guindy
DLF IT SEZ, Chennai is at the epicenter of a growing
modern city.
Just a fifteen minutes comfortable drive from the airport, you
enter one of the city's most important campuses, “DLF IT
SEZ, Chennai”.
Two new metro corridors are being developed and the only
interchange for all four rail links within the city being positioned
close to DLF, would provide tremendous connectivity to the
project and would cater to employees commuting from all parts
of the city.
Access from North and West Chennai has become easier after
the opening of the elevated bypass connecting Tambaram to
Ambattur in 2010. This is a proposition which other IT pockets
of the city do not have.
The new mono rail corridor, set to be commissioned in the
near future, will pass along Mount-Poonamalee and the
station planned in front of the DLF IT SEZ, Chennai
facility will add to the connectivity as well as convenience.
This is a modern city epicenter. An interstate bus terminus,
nearly a dozen luxury and semi-luxury hotels in a cluster, world-
class hospitals, the international airport, the merging of the
metro and mono rail, and the signature clover leaf Kathipara
junction. This five kilometer radius, which also houses the DLF
IT SEZ, Chennai is fast developing into the new city centre.
Over 4000 apartments are being constructed and service
apartments are making an appearance on the corridor from DLF
to the Bangalore Highway. It looks like this is set to become a
lifestyle and residential hub as well. The new developments
started with the completion of the Kathipara Grade separator
and the elevated bypass and are progressing quickly towards the
completion of the metro and mono rail, the Porur flyover and
the bus terminus.
DLF IT SEZ, Chennai has become a landmark in this area and is
proud to have contributed significantly. It seems, watching the
development over the past five years, that DLF IT SEZ, Chennai
has been one huge magnet, a catalyst for the rapid growth of
south west Chennai.
