- Thread starter raksrules
- Start date
from google maps.
from: Borivali West, Mumbai, Mumbai suburban, Maharashtra to: pune - Google Maps
the best way out of mumbai will be via mira road-ghodbunder road-thane-panvel route.
alternatively you can go via bandra-dharavi-sion-vashi bridge route. traffic may be slightly more than the first route especially between dharavi-sion depending on time of travel.
since you are going by a bike, the mumbai-pune expressway shown in the map above will be off limits.
you will have to go by NH4 which runs almost parallel to the expressway.

Take this route:
Borivali - Goregaon - Arrey Colony - Powai - Mankhurd - Vashi - Panvel
Before you reach Panvel, you'll need to be on NH4 and not take the expressway. The NH4 route will be sticking to the left, at the point where expressway starts. Keep a lookout for road signs. Just below it is a very big circle. Take the most extreme right, which is the Panvel Bypass (which continues towards JNPT, Uran). At the end of that road is a T junction, where right is Uran, left is NH4/Pune. Take a left.
Then, Panvel - Khopoli
After Khopoli, half the ghat ascent is on a one-way 2 lane road. After this, the road you are on (Nh4) joins the expressway, so, part of khandala ghat climb with be on the expressway (bikes are allowed here and its the only way up).
Further, as you approach Lonavala, there's a big tunnel and a straight road after that, and a left where you'll find NH4 exit to Pune. You have to take this exit.. DONT proceed straight at this point.
Here, you'll be back on Nh4, .. and its Nh4 all the way to Pune from here.

@Hydroxide
I came through the same route as you have suggested (but forgot :ashamed: ) but i had not aimed for that route rather, i happen to find that route, also while coming from Pune i took the side of Thane where on left over flyover we go to Vashi and right to Thane.
