OMR (Old Mahabalipuram Road) — Local Construction Context
Soil Type: OMR's soil varies significantly across its length. Inner pockets near Sholinganallur and Perungudi have soft clay with high water table, requiring pile foundations. Coastal and sandy stretches are more stable but need corrosion-resistant reinforcement.
Construction Tips: CMDA development control rules and road widening reservations vary by stretch. Always check your specific zone's FSI, setback, and road widening status before final plot purchase and design. IT corridor development has accelerated infrastructure, but some inner lanes still have access issues.
Material Logistics: OMR itself provides excellent logistics access. Material yards in Sholinganallur, Navalur, and Kelambakkam serve the corridor. Inner colony roads may be narrow.
