Seeking some information on NH - 5 route

I need the following information on Chennai - Kolkata GQ.
1) As per NHAI website, the stretch from Chennai to Vizag is complete. Still anybody who have done the stretch to comment about any pros - cons (if any).
2) I need a fuel break between Guntur - Vijayawada and in Vizag? Is there any reliance outlet there? if yes,pls specify the location?
3) Are there bypass roads through NH5 thru cities like Nellore, Guntur, Vijayawada, Rajahmundry? if yes how is it?
4) I also need info on Puri to Vizag route as well? roads, good food and fuel joints in the route? How much of GQ work is complete and how is the incomplete stretch?

Pls reply or PM me for any specific information.
Thanks in advance
Abhi

I did this stretch last year. Only one or two sections were yet to be completed then. i.e. there was no diversion as such except in 1 or 2 places. I completed the Chennai-Vizag stretch in 15 hours.. mainly because of a puntured tyre.
