🚶‍♂️ Street Walk in Madurai 🚛 The Heartbeat of Transport

Today, I took a walk down East Veli Street in Madurai, a stretch that quietly powers much of Tamil Nadu’s movement of goods and essentials. While Chennai is the state’s capital, Madurai has always been the true connector, linking villages, towns, and cities across the map.

As I walked past one transport office after another, I could sense how vital they are for everyday life—moving food, business goods, construction materials, and essentials across regions. Each office and signboard told a story, not just of business, but of connections between farmers, traders, and families waiting at the other end.

During my walk:

  • I managed to review a few offices,

  • Took storefront photos for others,

  • And even added some missing places to Google Maps to help future users.
    Many are still pending verification, but once approved, they’ll make finding and using these services much easier for everyone.

:pushpin: Transport Offices I Covered Today:

Walking back, I realized this wasn’t just about lorry services—it was about how Madurai’s transport offices are the lifeline connecting cities to villages, sustaining trade, and keeping the state moving.

Hi @MathanVibranarayan

It is great that you enjoy making contributions on Maps

I read some of your reviews of transportation providers. You might not be aware of the review guidelines. We can not review a business unless we have been a customer of the business. These reviews contain a list of destinations and don’t prove that you actually used their services.

Also, how do you decide how many stars to award when you just passed by on your walk?

Wow…! Simply wow! This is a humungous effort, dear @MathanVibranarayan

You are a truly dedicated local guide, making the best of every opportunity during travel and casual visits :flexed_biceps:

The many contributions are truly impressive and inspiring for everyone :+1:

The lorry services in Pune are disorganized, and they simply work on luck on the day by queuing up at a fixed location, waiting for customers.

I think by giving them an identity on Maps, we can help these small and independent businesses a lot.

@TusharSuradkar true.. still this industry is highly unorganised and we have much to work on that especially in Google map.
