The
recent
announcement
of
the
reopening
of
Ford’s
manufacturing
plant,
which
has
its
presence
on
GST
road,
and
the
ongoing
construction
of
Kilambakkam
railway
station
have
been
predicted
to
be
the
key
catalysts
for
driving

growth
in
the
region.

Ford’s
Reopening:
Revitalizing
Industrial
and
Employment
Prospects

The
reopening
of
Ford
manufacturing
plant
near
Maraimalai
Nagar
after
a
three-year
gap,
in
close
proximity
to
Singaperumal
Koil,
is
expected
to
create
numerous
job
opportunities,
revive
secondary
industries,
and
drive
demand
for
residential
and
commercial
real
estate.

Ford’s
presence
has
historically
attracted
a
large
number
of
skilled
workers
from
across
the
country,
many
of
whom
have
established
their
homes
here.
Similarly,
its
upcoming
reopening
is
expected
to
bring
in
more
population
into
the
locality
and
further
boost
the
housing
and
commercial
demand
in
the
neighboring
areas.

The
growing
influx
of
workers
and
industries
is
additionally
expected
to
relocate
to
these
thriving
areas,
providing
lucrative
opportunities
for
both
investors
and
potential
homebuyers,
adding
value
to
the
real
estate
market
of
the
region.

Kilambakkam
Railway
Station:
Added
Connectivity
Advantage
Along
GST
Road

One
of
the
major
factors
that
is
going
to
influence
the
region’s
growth
is
the
ongoing
construction
of
the
Kilambakkam
railway
station. 
The
railway
station
is
expected
to
significantly
improve
the
connectivity
from
the
southern
suburbs
of
the
city
along
GST
Road
to
Central
Chennai,
with
the
proximal
Kilambakkam
bus
terminus,
further
strengthening
transport
links
in
the
area.
This
improved
connectivity
is
expected
to
further
bolster
the
appeal
of
residential
and
commercial
plots
in
Singaperumal
Koil,
Urapakkam,
Guduvanchery,
Vandalur
and
other
surrounding
localities
along
GST
Road.

Road’s
Real

Areas
along
GST
road
such
as
Guduvanchery
and
Urapakkam,

experiencing
extensive
growth
due
to
their

to
prominent
IT
firms
such
as
Accenture,
Zoho,
Capegemini,
Infosys
and
many
such.
Similarly,
localities
like

noteworthy
educational
institutions
and

Pvt
Ltd
(Deepam

Meanwhile,
Singaperumal
Koil,
strategically
located
at
the
intersection
of
the
IT
hub
and
the
Auto-rail

is
rapidly
emerging
as
the
real
estate
hotspot
on
the
GST
road,
especially
due

the
presence
of
the
Mahindra
World
City
nearby.

recent
reopening
of

has
further
boosted
interest
in
the
area,
prompting
developers
to
launch
new
real
estate
projects
to
accommodate
the
migrating
employee
population.

For
homebuyers
and
investors,
the
GST
Road
corridor
offers
an
ideal
blend
of
affordability,
connectivity,
and
future
growth
potential,
making
it
a
prime
real

rapidly
evolving
suburban
landscape.
