Gudur bound passenger walk to the extreme Eastern Side of the CHENNAI Central Terminal and Arakkonam bound passenger as ever walk to the Western Side of the Central station.Or both side bound passenger can travel upto the BASIN BRIDGE JUNCTION and switch over to their destination at the BASIN BRIDGE JUNCTION easily.
