Tamil Nadu Greenlights 3rd Route To Yercaud For Improved Travel
•Tamil Nadu approves a third route to Yercaud to ease congestion and improve connectivity for commuters and tourists.
•The new route aims to reduce travel pressure on the existing Salem-Yercaud main road and Kuppanur-Yercaud road, which face heavy traffic.
•A detailed survey was conducted, leading to the transfer of a 10.3 km stretch from the Rural Development Department to the Highways Department for widening.
•The transferred sections include Karadiyur-Sorakkapatti road, Puthur to Karadiyur, and Kanavai Puthur to Kannappadi.
•The upgraded corridor will benefit local residents and tourists from districts like Hosur, Krishnagiri, and Dharmapuri, offering quicker and safer travel.
