Q: I'm planning on moving near Avinashi Road. What's the traffic situation like there? I've heard many problems are caused because of heavy traffic flow in this locality.
There are many side roads that you can use that are smaller and have lighter traffic, depending on where you live. But if you need to travel by bus, they're more frequent on Avinashi Road.
Avinashi is Coimbatore's biggest arterial road. It was widened to a six-lane road because of the amount of traffic that it sees. The extra lanes help, but not much.
Peak traffic hours in Coimbatore are around 11 a.m. and 6 p.m., so if you can find a way to avoid those timings travelling on Avinashi shouldn't be a problem for you.
Avinashi road is one of the biggest in Coimbatore. If you live near it, you'll have to deal with traffic for sure, whether you're planning to use public or private transport.
