Some trains terminate at Chennai Egmore Station, which is roughly the same distance as Central from IMSc. There are plenty of auto rickshaws and taxis at Egmore, but as yet we don't know of a pre-paid service. Trains which come from the north to Egmore will stop at Chennai Beach Station, from where there is a suburban train service. There is no pre-paid service, but there are auto rickshaws and buses.

GETTING TO IMSc USING PUBLIC BUS

If you are taking public transport, your best option is getting into the rare buses (5C, 5K, 5T and 23K) that actually come into CIT campus and stop outside the Women's Polytechnic, or WPT (2 minutes walk from IMSc).Your next best bet is a bus coming to Indira Nagar water tank (6D and 21D), just across the canal from WPT (5 minutes walk from IMSc). These buses are rare too.In practice, you are most likely to get a bus upto Adyar Depot (10 minutes walk from IMSc) or to Madhya Kailash (a good 1.5 km away from IMSc). Note: Adyar Depot is an entity distinct from Adyar signal or Adyar Bus Stand!
