The Madhya Kailash Junction is an important junction in the southern part of the city of Chennai. It is located at the beginning of the Rajiv Gandhi Salai (IT Expressway) which intersects the Sardar Patel Road in the form of "T".

Madhya Kailash Interchange

Four flyovers were planned to be completed by 2009, but these projects have remained unbuilt.[1][2][3][4] A Trumpet interchange is planned for the junction. The interchange starts at the IT Expressway in front of Kasturba Nagar station and goes parallel to MRTS line and then turn about while splitting into two joining the Sardar Patel Road. As of December 2007, the corporation and government were yet to finalise the design and alignment of the flyover.[5]
