The T.K.Road connects M.C.Road(S.H.-01) to Main Eastern Highway (S.H.-08). The T.K.Road (S.H.-07) has the richest townships en route. It can also be called as "the N.R.I. Highway of Kerala". Not only the main townships of Thiruvalla and Pathanamthitta, but all the small towns and villages through which T.K.Road passes through are major contributors towards India's Foreign Currency. The diaspora is spread across the world, mainly U.S., Middle East and Europe. The Highway also has great cultural significance too. The main trunk road to Sabarimala, Kerala's Largest Pilgrim Centre starts from Pathanamthitta. The annual Christian convention at Maramon is held near Kozhencherry which is on T.K.Road. The traditional Snake Boat race conducted during Onam celebration is at Aranmula which lies near to T.K.Road / S.H.-07. The District Headquarters, Pathanamthitta is connected to Cochin and Northern Kerala by T.K.Road. It connects the South Eastern townships of Kerala to M.C.Road. It is the shortest route to Cochin from Punalur, (the hill town of Kollam District) and in turn from the Tamil Nadu townships Tenkasi and Tirunelveli.

Though T.K.Road / S.H.-07 passes only through the Pathanamthitta District, it connects the district to the neighbouring districts of Kottayam, Alappuzha and Ernakulam. It also connects the Alappuzha and Kottayam districts to the eastern parts of Kollam district
