History

The first lines in the station were electrified on 29 November 1979, with the electrification of the Chennai Central–Tiruvallur section. Additional lines at the station were electrified on 2 October 1986, with the electrification of the Villivakkam–Avadi section.[1]

Layout

The station has four tracks and two platforms—a side platform and an island platform. The island platform houses the ticket counter. Unlike most other suburban stations on the network, the station lack several basic passenger amenities such as macadamised road leading to the neighbourhoods. A new footover bridge (FOB) has been constructed and now in use since May 2023. But the passengers are put to hardship as all the direct approaches to the platform has been blocked due to the running of high speed train on this route.Old people and people with luggage find it very difficult. [3]
