It looks like you’re asking about the “mega block” on Chennai Metro or local railways during 2025, which usually refers to a planned long-duration suspension of services for maintenance or upgrades. Let me clarify what’s available:

🚇 Chennai Metro – Interruptions & Schedule Adjustments
I couldn’t find any official announcements for a Chennai Metro mega block in 2025. The metro continued normal operations even during phases of trial runs, expansion work, and corridor testing — including the Porur–Poonamallee stretch testing in mid-2025
Connectivity improvements and corridor expansions (like the new viaduct at St. Thomas Mount or testing for Yellow Line) are underway, but no full-scale service suspensions (mega blocks) have been officially scheduled
During festivals such as Pongal (Jan 14–16, 2025), the metro ran on a Sunday/Holiday timetable rather than shutting down—services operated from 5 AM to 11 PM with adjusted train intervals
🚉 Other Rail Systems – Mega Block Instances
Indian Railways (e.g. Southern Railway / in Chennai region) occasionally schedules mega blocks on suburban or mainline services. Here’s what’s known for 2025:
- Chennai Egmore line: Development works included train block scheduled up to August 14, 2025 on routes between Chennai Egmore and Villupuram for construction purposes
- Central Railway in Mumbai: Mega blocks also took place there on multiple occasions—like a 3-day jumbo block in January 2025 and others in April/May. But these do not affect Chennai Metro directly
✅ Summary Table
