[ezee 0]

Hi,

 

I have Logan DLS (5 months old) and planning to a trip to Lucknow from Gurgaon, I hope no problems for me but confused a bit about best way to reach lucknow.

 

Can any recent visitor suggest what will be the best road to take:

 

 Delhi - Moradabaad - Barreily - Sitapur - Lucknow

 or

 Gurgaon - Palwal - Agra - Etawah - Kanpur - Lucknow

 

How is the road condition and suggesstions for trip?

 

Thanks,

Gurgaon - Palwal - Agra - Etawah - Kanpur - Lucknow

Slightly longer but far better road condition and traffic as well.

12 hours if driven normally and you don't get into really heavy blockade or traffic.

Well Gurkha is right plan your journey as not to meet the traffic at peak. Carry a bottle, inflate the spare tire also have the car washed clearly and add aftermarket wind screen washer liquid as it easily remove the sticky dirt from the trucks pipes. Safe driving.

The road is pretty good. About 15km or so Shikohabad-Etawah is not yet done, but is still Ok. I am told people are now doing Kanpur-Agra in under 4 hours. I have done Kanpur-Etawah in 2 hours four times in the past few months. Now Etawah-Kanpur has no diversions and Rs.35 toll.

 

I do hear that the other route to Lucknow (via Bareilly) is also excellent but not  to GQ standard. The 100+km you save is a bonus. In my view (I am a Lakhnawi transplanted to Kanpur) it is a toss up!

Thanks guys, I will follow Agra - Kanpur coz it will save me time to cross Delhi from Gurgaon.
