Auroville railway station
Bus to Puducherry
Hundreds of departures a day leave Chennai's CMBT terminal for Puducherry; from there it is a short hop north. The one state bus that goes into Auroville itself runs once a day and helps nobody.
Puducherry station via Villupuram
The branch line to Puducherry hangs off Villupuram Junction, 35 km away. Four services a day from Chennai Egmore, often slower than simply taking the bus.
