After cyclone landfall, Air, Chennai Metro Rail, bus services resume

Chennai, Nov 26 (UNI) As the cyclone Nivar crossed the coast
between Marakkanam and Puducherry early this morning, air and
bus transport services, which were suspended yesterday, resumed
today.
Official sources said flight services which were suspended as
the Chennai airport was shut for 12 hours from 7.00 PM last
evening to 7.00 AM this morning as a precautionary measure,
resumed this morning.
Though the airport was opened at 0700 hrs, two flights from
Mumbai and New Delhi could not land due to maintenance work
on the runway, which was water-logged due to heavy rains.
Airport sources said Air Asia flights from Mumbai and New
Delhi with 62 and 54 passengers, which were scheduled to
land at 0730 hrs and 0815 hrs respectively, were diverted
to Bengaluru.
Chennai Metro Rail services, which were stopped due to
cyclone Nivar on Tuesday evening, also resumed from noon
today.
Meanwhile, Chief Minister Edappadi K Palaniswami in a
statement here said bus services, which were suspended
in seven districts since 1300 hrs on Tuesday, will resume
from noon today as the cyclone has crossed the coast.
In a statement, he said normal bus transport services
in Chengalpattu, Villupuram, Cuddalore, Nagapattinam,
Tiruvarur, Thanjavur and Pudukkottai districts would
resume from 1200 noon.
Following the announcement, normal bus services were
operated in these districts.
