An extremely busy road with a lot of noise and pollution. Worth seeing it just to see the madness and there are some interesting shops along it.

This road is dirty, dusty, disorganised and most of all dangerous. No proper footpath, traffic bumper to bumper and does NOT make or a relaxing shopping experience. The shops are good , the secreteriat spendid but just poor organisation

This is the main road of the city, but it is difficult to walk along its side. There's no sidewalk at all! It's all potholes, and dug-up areas... with the busy traffic, its almost impossible to walk from lets say Spencers to Azad...

MG Road is improving. The traffic is chaotic and the atmosphere is dusty but where isn't in India? The type of shops along the MG Road are becoming more upmarket and more interesting and one can actually buy coffee beans now!
