CHENNAI: Commuters faced a harrowing time on the Alandur to Pallavaram stretch of the traffic-choked GST Road on Friday evening.

A day before the weekend, thousands of commuters were stuck on the arterial road after traffic restrictions and diversions were announced in view of former Vice President Venkaiah Naidu’s family function in Mamallapuram here. Motorists were advised to avoid ECR, 200 Feet Radial Road, and use OMR and GST Road instead.
