Pune to Hyderabad - Team-BHP

shoky · 25th October 2007, 19:40

Anyone who has traveled this route recently may please give an update on the road condition. I plan to travel on this route in the first week of November 2007.

Ashok, heard that the road is in good condition except a small stretch near Homnabad.

Is Homnabad the place just before you enter Hyderabad?

Road in pretty good condition.. but start early in the morning. Otherwise, you end up moving along with the truck traffic.. pretty difficult to overtake them on the 2 lane road.

Homnabad is halfway between Hyderabad and Solapur (146 kms from Hyderabad, 143 kms to Solapur).

One of our friends travelled down on the road last fortnight, and the road is good.

There are minor quirks between BHEL and another 10 kms, as the roads are being widened. They get better after that till about 15 to 20 kms beyond Zaheerabad, once you enter the Karnataka border. You can drive around 40 to 50 on this stretch for about 15 kms till you reach Homnabad.
From there the road is good, but there is a hell of a lot of truck traffic between Sholapur and Pune. I did this last xmas.

Thanks guys for the updates. As road conditions are ok, I will go ahead with the plan then.

The road is in good shape but for the Karnataka stretch. Also, watch out for the truckers on the Pune-Solapur stretch they are an absolute nightmare.
