Kathipara Junction

Kathipara Junction is a multilevel interchange in the Guindy district of Chennai, Tamil Nadu, connecting four major roads through a series of elevated bridges and ground-level passages. The structure spans several levels, with separate paths guiding vehicles toward different destinations across the city.

The interchange was built between 2006 and 2008 by the Chennai city authorities to handle increasing traffic in the expanding metropolis. The construction replaced an earlier ground-level crossing that had become a bottleneck for commuters.

The junction marks the intersection where commuters from diverse neighborhoods meet, reflecting the daily rhythm of Chennai residents.

Vehicles follow lane markings and overhead signs that indicate which path leads to each road. Most lanes remain separated, making it easier to switch direction without crossing oncoming traffic.

The interchange takes its name from a former village that once stood at this location before the city expanded here. At night, lighting along the ramps and bridges reveals the sweeping curves of the structure more clearly.
