This signal is located on a road that is taken by the multitudes from the south to reach the Marina beach, Chepauk, Parry’s Corner and beyond.
During the afternoons, the Kutcheri Road-Santhome High Road signal may seem a very ordinary one with hardly any vehicle passing through. Large old trees provide an ample shade to pedestrians.
Come peak hour and the scene changes. It becomes an extremely busy hub segregating traffic to Mylapore, the beach and Marina Loop Road — the last one through a small lane next to the Santhome Cathedral.
