1) The closest airport is
in Chennai, which is around 135 kms from puducherry (approx. 2 ½ hrs.
journey). Chennai has excellent connections with almost all cities in
India and direction connection to Europe, USA, Middle East and South
East Asia. Trichy airport is 220 kms away. Bangalore (320 kms) and
Madurai are the other nearby airports.
2 ) Though puducherry is
on the rail map journey by train to and from puducherry is not very
popular. Villupuram is the nearest junction, it is fairly well connected
to places like Chennai, Madurai and Trichy.
3)puducherry
is well connected to all districts and major towns of various states
like Tamilnadu, Karnataka, Kerala and Andra Pradesh. puducherry is best
accessible by road, either by bus or by taxi. There are frequent buses,
almost every 15 minutes in the day from Chennai’s new bus stand in
Koyembedu.
4)
The express buses takes 3
½ hours to reach puducherry. Preferably take the buses coming by the
East Coast Road via Mahabalipuram, instead of the National Highway, as
the ECR is far more scenic with shimmering sea to give you company most
of the way.
There are frequent
buses to puducherry from places like Chidambaram, Thanjavur Trichy and
Coimbatore. Especially private luxury buses are connecting puducherry
with other major cities in Tamil Nadu and Bangalore.
