Alapakkam Lake is located in Alapakkam, a neighbourhood area situated amid Porur, Valasaravakkam and Maduravoyal.  The water body is surrounded by residential areas.  Water in the pond is Pale Yellowish in colour. Recently SWD network is connected to the pond which has no outlet. The pond was being dumped with garbage until recent past.  Catchment area is not connected to the water body but the rain water enters the pond during rainy season. Benefits from the implementation of this project include improvement of water quality by providing constructed wetland and aquatic floating island. Due to de-silting water will be made available throughout the year and hence, fish culture will be developed. With proper counseling and guidance, the resident association will take care of the pond and hence, water body will be protected.  The pond has been restored under the Chennai Smart City project funds
