OMR is a 45-km stretch that goes up to Mamallapuram, but the toll applies to the 20-km stretch running south from Madhya Kailash junction in Adyar up to Siruseri. The Tamil Nadu Road Development Company (TNRDC), a joint venture between Tamil Nadu Industrial Development Corporation and Tidel Park Ltd, is implementing the toll road upgrading work and is expected to start on the second phase of the road project between Siruseri and Mamallapuram soon.
