Toll Road to Gurgaon
The best thing about Gurgaon, India is the road that gets you from the International Airport here. In sharp contrast to the chaos and mayhem that you see elsewhere, this one is a smooth, easy ride thanks mostly to the fact that the outside BPO hours traffic is low, there is no ongoing construction - and there is a toll to go on it. Of course that creates one small complication - the toll plaza where the (Electronic Pre Paid) Tag Only lanes are always stubbornly filled with cars that only want to pay cash. Proving that despite the advances in infrastructure Indian drivers haven't lost their good old Roadsigns-are-Meaningless mindset. Still once you are through this minor inconvenience, you will have much to thank for on your drive to Gurgaon.
