The move is aimed at preventing traffic congestion around the area
A bus bay has been created at a bus stop on both sides of Grand Northern Trunk Road. These two bus stops are found near the newly-opened Madhavaram Mofussil Bus Terminus (MMBT).
The permanent barricades installed by the State Highways are made of steel and would get bus drivers to stop only within the dedicated space.
Traffic congestion near the bus stops is the main reason for installing these barricades. Apparently, the traffic police raised the issue of traffic congestion and accidents, especially at night, due to buses stopping in the middle of the carriageway and hindering the free movement of other vehicles around the Madhavaram roundtana.

Two persons were killed when a truck ran over them at Nariyampalli near Avinashi in Tiruppur district on Monday. Police said Nandhagopal Krishnan (41), a junior engineer at the Tamil Nadu State Transport Corporation’s Annur depot, was driving a two-wheeler from Annur with his friend Ananthakumar (37) on the pillion.
When Krishnan tried to avoid hitting a parked vehicle at Nariyampalli, the two fell off the two-wheeler and the truck ran over them. Both of them died on the spot. Avinashi police registered a case.
History-sheeters warned
In an effort to curb crimes, the Coimbatore City Police on Monday held a meeting with around 50 history-sheeters to warn them against repeating any crime.

Stalin spoke to the history-sheeters, who had been arrested for crimes such as murder, theft and possession of ganja and were out on bail, police sources said.
