Planning to do BLR-Salem - Namakkal - Kannanur - Pagalavadi - Trichy-Thiruvarur now. Will update on experience once I return.
Cool. Good luck !
Just wanted to note that the road between Kannanur till Jayaram college is just a small village road, (for about 5 kms i guess), and will NOT look like a regular traffic road with many vehicles going in that road.

IIRC, It is the 2nd right you have to take which is about 500 mts or so, after joining SH30, but better check with the locals there. There are tea shops and other shops on both sides.

If you don't want to drive in that small road, go with the route shown in Ampere's google map link.

I did the Thiruvarur trip from Chennai instead of Bangalore. The route you have mentioned here seems to be the best. I know trichy - Thiruvarur section is good, may not be as good as NH45. But you can comfortably do a steady 80kmph.

Re: Bangalore to Thiruvarur

Hello,

If anyone has the latest road condition of this route, please update -

Salem --> Attur --> virudachalam --> Jayankondam --> Aduthurai

Also, is this the best route or is there something via Namakkal that is better.
Thanks,

Thanks,
- Its good roads all the way.
- Single lane bridge at T-Palur.

Another option, same distance is : Namakkal-Thuraiyur-Trichy-Grand Anicut-Thiruvaiyaru (SH22).

Check with J-Ravi on this route. I think he used for going to Swami Malai. Its a good road. Bypasses Trichy to a large extent and also Tanjore totally.

Thanks Ampere. Just to update...I did this route last week. Except for the stretch between Attur and Virudachalam others were good
