In a major infrastructural boost to the Chennai–Salem sector, the Centre and the Tamil Nadu government have proposed a new Rs.10,000 crore Green Express Corridor to connect the two cities in Northern and Western part of Tamil Nadu

The new corridor, planned via Harur and Tiruvannamalai, will reduce both the distance and travel time, as against the existing two routes — one via Ulundurpet and Athur and another via Vellore and Krishnagiri.

The proposed Chennai Salem Corridor via Tindivanam-Tiruvannamalai-Tirupattur--Harur will have six lanes and has no industrial estates en route. In a land starved state like Tamil Nadu, the Corridor offers plenty of Land banks which the industries can have look at. The corridor is close to several ports including Chennai,Ennore Katupalli and Karaikal ports. No availability of land and serious problems in land acquisition for setting up industries have remained a serious problem which is affecting the expansion of manufacturing in the state.

The proposed route will be an Access Controlled Green Express Corridor and will connect Tiruvannamalai. This will not only reduce the distance by about 60km, from the present 360 km, but also halve travel time from six hours to only 3 hours. This will be the first such project to be undertaken in Tamil Nadu, on the lines of the Mumbai–Pune Expressway,
