| ![]() Hi, Just came across this news below News Today - An English evening daily published from Chennai Hope things will be better, as a lot of us will be hitting the road for holidays. I wish BHPians should start a sms service to warn each other (who are already on road with no access to internet). Just a suggestion, but this can be implemented I believe. Thanks, Jacob |

I take my usual route: Chennai - Vellore - Krishnagiri - Salem - Coimbatore - Palakkad - Ottapalam - Shoranur - Thrissur - Kochi. Given my start time, I think I'll cross CBE max by noon on 24th. Last edited by ssh1979 : 14th December 2011 at 14:36. | ||

I tried to find the recent Bangalore->Calicut thread but could not figure out the right one. Can anyone point me there and perhaps make this posting there as well or provid a link to this one? | |

Please note that there are numerous diversions for road widening on the Chengapalli-Coimbatore and L&T Bypass-Walayar stretches so avoid this if possible or select a non-truck peak hour to pass this stretch. One alternative is to turn off NH47 at Perundurai and go to Pollachi via Kangeyam. In fact from Pollachi you can also get back onto NH47 on the Palakkad-Thrissur stretch (you can avoid Palakkad this way). Look at earlier posts regarding these. Also our resident experts @ranjitp1, @ajithbr and @kala are always there with minute details ![]() Last edited by NPV : 15th December 2011 at 00:29. | |

NH 7 and Nh 47 till vijayamangalam. Then take the right to tiruppur(at vijayamangalam, via uthukuli) and from there to pollachi via palladam. Pollachi to thrissur is a breeze, atleast until vadakkencherry. | |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() I am driving to TVM on 24th or 25th on NH7 through Nagerkoil. Hope there are no issues in the southern border between KL and TN on NH47. Last edited by vasoo : 16th December 2011 at 14:21. |
