Mettupalayam Road, (NH 67) is a busy arterial road in city of Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, India. This NH runs for about 36 kilometers starting exactly from Rangai Gownder street up to the northern suburb of Mettupalayam. It is six metres (20 ft) wide in most stretches. The road narrows at the stretches between Edayar street, RG street and Flower Market areas. The City Corporation and state government has proposed few subways, foot overbridges, flyovers on important and most congested junctions on this arterial road. Green Corridor system is under implemention between Chintamani and Thudiyalur to synchronising traffic signals, as it is one of the most congested stretches in the city.
