Tiruvottiyur, Administrative division in North Chennai, India.
Tiruvottiyur forms part of the Tondiarpet division, encompassing industrial zones, residential areas, and fishing communities along the Bay of Bengal coastline.
The region transformed from Ottriyur into an expanded Chennai district in 2018, marking a significant administrative shift in Tamil Nadu's urban development.
The neighborhood features three major temples: Thiyagarajaswamy Temple, Varadharaja Perumal Temple, and Pattinathar Temple, representing Tamil religious heritage.
Metropolitan Transport Corporation operates two bus depots in Tiruvottiyur, connecting the area to central Chennai through frequent services and suburban rail networks.
The construction of groynes in 2004 addressed coastal erosion issues that affected local fishing communities and changed the shoreline dynamics.
