Palakkad [Kerala] To Indore [M.P]: Which Route?

[manojodungat]

I am thinking of a major road trip to Indore[M.P] from Palakkad [Kerala] next week.

• Vehicle: Scorpio
• Number of People on board: 4
• Priority : Maximum 4-Lane roads and No night drives.

I was thinking of the following options:

Route 1:
Palakkad – Bangalore –Hubli – Satara- Lonad- Morgaon-Nagar- Shirdi- Manmad-NH3- Dhule- Indore.​

I don’t mind some additional kilometers for better surfaces /less traffic.My major concern is connecting NH4 and NH3.

Route 2:
The same above route, but via Pune. But definitely don’t want to mess around within Pune city.
By-passing Pune:
Kapurhole –Narayanpur-Bhiwadi- Nagar Road ?​

Route 3
Is the route via Hyderabad any worth? I have done until Hyderabad and I loved NH-7. Is the Hyderabad-Indore stretch, 4-Laned ?​

Thanks in advance
Manoj

If you plan to take Hyderabad route then : Hyderabad-Adilabad-Hinganghat-Nagpur-Betul-Ashapur-Khandwa-Sanawad-Indore is the route to take. I have heard that Hinganghat till Nagpur is little bad with diversions. Nagpur to Betul is 4 Laned (best 4-lane tarmac in India!), Betul to Khandwa and then Indore is excellent 2 Lane road. But beware of sudden speed-breakers between Indore and Khandwa.

BTW, can we have a TAI meet in Indore? Face any problems here in MP then call me, will PM you my no.

P.S.: Pune to Indore is good road except Shirdi to malegaon which was bad the last time I went Shirdi.

Pallakkad-Bangalore-Pune-Indore is best.
