Hyderabad to Bangalore : Route Queries

gajadonga · 15th October 2013, 03:13

Returned back from Srirangam via Bangalore no hassles in the night drive.
The traffic was quite high.
Early morning and late night drives seems to be a good option.
Crossed Devanahalli 9.30pm arrived Hyderabad 3am.

Where was the traffic dense? Between Srirangam and BLR, or after BLR?

Traffic was as usual between Salem- Hosur. Took about 20mins to cross Krishnagiri toll.Usually after*10pm*the traffic between Chikaballapur and Kurnool will be a littleless *but on the day I traveled the traffic was quite high.From Kurnool to Hyderabad it is the usual traffic any time during the night.Problem quite a few accelerations and sudden brakings with some lane switching maneuvers due to the lorries

A really tragic incident occurred this morning on Bangalore-Hyderabad highway. 45 people were feared killed when the Volvo bus in which they were travelling caught fire after the bus hit the road divider 110 kms from Hyderabad.

I am planning BLR - HYD with a 3 yr kid starting 5am on 7th Nov. What are suggested places for some breaks along the way, say for breakfast and snacks?

Do I expect some telengana agitation en route?

There is Kamat Upachar Restaurant at Chikballapur you can have breakfast here, you can consider stopping at Kurnool for another break.

Thers is a plan to block highways on 6th and/or 7th Nov 2013. Remember seeing a scroll in tv today. Keep a watch on the news. Thanks.

Haven't seen/heard any such news now, can you confirm which news channel was airing this? There is an all party meet scheduled in the next couple of days with the GoM to discuss the T issue. I therefore don't foresee any such blockage as of now since representations are being put forth before them for talks.

vvrchandra · 4th November 2013, 10:11

This is as per the agitation planl/schedule prepared by APNGO team. Don't remember exactly where I saw it. Will confirm if I see again. Thanks.

GenuineOptimist · 6th November 2013, 16:48

Is there an update on this agitation? Today is 6, so if their plans are per schedule some road-roko should've happened today, right. Is there any specific newspaper or TV channel that has updates.
