It is a great and well maintained highway in Telangana. It looks very beautiful with 4 lanes 2 way traffic. We can achieve more than design speed, I think the design speed would be around 80 kmph once I travelled by bike with 100 kmph safely. It takes hardly 3 hrs to reach Hyderabad from Karimnagar.
