  • Anna Salai (Tamil: [aɳɳaː saːlaɪ]), formerly known as St. Thomas Mount Road or simply Mount Road, is an arterial road in Chennai, India. It starts at the Cooum Creek, south of Fort St George, leading in a south-westerly direction towards St. Thomas Mount, and ends at the Kathipara Junction in Guindy. Beyond the Kathipara Junction, a branch road arises traversing westwards to Poonamallee to form the Mount-Poonamallee Road while the main branch continuing southwards to Chennai Airport, Tambaram and beyond to form Grand Southern Trunk Road (GST Road or NH45). Anna Salai, which is more than 400 years old, is acknowledged as the most important road in Chennai city. The head offices of many commercial enterprises and public buildings are located along Anna Salai. It is the second longest road in Chennai, after EVR Periyar Salai. There were several flyover projects under proposal along the stretch, many of which have been shelved owing to the construction of the Chennai Metro Rail project, which runs along the median of the road. Anna Salai Head Post office, one of the most important post offices in the city, is located on this road. It was established in 1854 as Mount Road SO as a non-gazetted delivery office. With the growth of commerce and urbanization, this SO was upgraded to gazetted in the year 1955. Nomenclature of this Head Post office was changed from Mount Road Head Post office to Anna Road Head Post office on 15 September 1974. (en)
  • Die Anna Salai (Tamil: அண்ணா சாலை [ˈaɳːɑː ˈsɑːlɛi̯] „Anna-Straße“), früher engl. Mount Road, ist die Hauptstraße von Chennai (Madras), der Hauptstadt des indischen Bundesstaates Tamil Nadu. Die ehemalige Mount Road wurde 1971 nach dem Politiker C. N. Annadurai (genannt Anna) in Anna Salai umbenannt. Die Anna Salai beginnt beim Fort St. George an der Mündung des Cooum und führt von dort nach Südwesten in Richtung des St. Thomas Mount im Süden Chennais (daher der alter Name Mount Road). Sie endet an der Anschlussstelle , wo sie sich in die in Richtung des westlichen Vororts Poonamallee führende und die weiter nach Südwesten verlaufende Fernstraße Grand Southern Trunk Road (National Highway 45) teilt. Die Anna Salai ist 12,6 Kilometer lang und hat sechs Fahrspuren. Ein 1800 Meter langer Straßenabschnitt, der Anna Flyover, ist als Hochstraße gebaut. Um den zunehmenden Verkehrsstaus Herr zu werden, ist der Bau neuer Überführungen geplant. Die derzeit im Bau befindliche blaue Linie der Metro Chennai verläuft unterirdisch entlang der Anna Salai. Die Anna Salai ist das wichtigste Geschäftszentrum Chennais. Die Straße wird von Bürobauten wie dem 14-stöckigen , Einkaufszentren wie der bekannten , anderen Geschäften wie , dem ältesten Buchhändler Indiens, und Fünfsternehotels gesäumt. An der Anna Salai befinden sich ferner der Neubau des Parlamentsgebäudes des Bundesstaates Tamil Nadu, die anglikanische St. George’s Cathedral und die . (de)
