Coimbatore, often called 'the Manchester of South India', is the second largest city in Tamil Nadu. On the banks of the Noyyal River and surrounded by the scenic Western Ghats, the city is a major industrial center known for its factories, engineering firms, and automobile part manufacturers.

Administered by the Coimbatore Municipal Corporation, the city is a district headquarters as well .Most of the urban development is outside the Municipal Corporation limits as the residential areas of the city have grown around existing industrial areas. The main industrial areas are at Peelamedu, Ganapathy, SITRA, Kurichi industrial estate (SIDCO), and Velandipalayam.

Three major national highways pass through the city- The NH 47, NH 67 and NH 209.

The city itself has seven major arterial roads- Avinashi road ,Pallakad ( part of the NH47) , Trichy Road , Mettupalayam road (part of the NH 67), Pollachi road ( part of the NH209), Marudhamalai, and Satyamangalam Road . The railway station is in the southwest part of the city. There are two major bus stands north of the railway station and one bus stand south of it. The town bus stand is at Gandhipuram for buses for intra city travel and the Singanallur bus stand is for buses for intercity travel to neighboring towns and cities. As the city is the main entry point into the neighboring state of Kerala and to Ooty and other hill stations at Nilgiri Hills, the railway junction and bus stands are often very crowded. With a high vehicle to population ratio, the roads are choked with traffic.

Coimbatore has only 40% of its area covered with underground sewage systems. Open and lined drains often run next to the roads.
