Straight road
Gentle curves
Breathless view
Long tunnels
Stone bridges
Highway clouds
Bodiless trucks
Toll plaza
Lake at Khopoli
Valley and hills
Fog and rain
Six lane highway with a lane shoulder on either side
The Mumbai Pune expressway lacks the Indian road chaos; almost feel one with the wind. Makes me want roads like that in Bombay – just the roads, where I can drive for 10feet and not find a single ditch, crater, pothole. Possible you think?

Open skies nice weather - driving with that speacial one, can be romantic, need to get away frm the city soon!!
Did you have a good mtg?
If such roads existed in Mumbai....then who would wax eloquent about the Expressway:))
we drive out on sunday if nothing is planned for and go have lunch in pune and come back. game?
it seems very imaginery. but i too wish we would find roads like you think. life would be soo much nicer,full of fun.is someone hearing this.
Its a dream road yea, so much is possible in India I guess:-)
Hey Mee - I've travelled that road, remember you said "dont take a flight" - yep the journey was beautiful
possible if the govt relinques the job to pvt infrastructure firms
Gita, Sheila, Arpana, Jim- :-)
Sanjiv - yep
Keshi- guess either we build the pressure for the govt to hand the projects over , or grin n bear:-)
Runa- Yes!!
Yes Mike!
I love the expressway!!! :)
open and straight roads.... heaven to be in ..... good way to relax and getaway after a hectic week...... long drive- best way to venture ahead
Ajeya! Where have you disappeared to? Come back, all's forgiven!:)
Allex- when are you venturing ahead?:)
i think when we start to think we dampen our pace.... a good impulsive kickoff is required...:)
More power to impulse:)
Wish they made something like this between Bangalore n Mangalore too.. The ghat section has been under constant repairs since 2007 and a nightmare to travelers.
Only consolation is the new train service which is almost always booked.
Brian -I once flew Bglr Mglr, and boy was it a scenic landing:) Lush green!
hey,

this expressway wuld be on my list of journey's I must take!
