Dindigul is the only corporation that boasts of having a bus stand that has six entrances that also function as exits. This creates chaos within the bus stand, with commuters running helter-skelter as some buses make their way in, while others use the same route to exit. Not just for the floating population to the terminus, even for regular commuters it is a tight balancing act getting in and out of buses..
The bus stand caters not just to town buses but also to mofussil buses going to Palani, Tiruchi, Kodaikanal and to cities down south. On an average daily around 1000 government buses come into the bus stand with a daily passenger traffic of more than one lakh during Kodaikanal season and Palani temple festival. Even the route taken by the buses from the National Highways to reach the bus stand within the Dindigul corporation limits is a narrow stretch with residential areas on either side.
