I was thinking for a long time to have a Long Drive on National Highway 2 (NH-2), which is known as Durgapur Expressway in West Bengal. At last, on the 1st week of April 2015; my dream came true. Distance between my place in Kolkata & my destination place in Burdwan district is around 80kms. People suggesting me to go by train and not by my Honda Aviator Scooter because of Heat (hot weather in April) and fear of road accident that happens often on National Highways.
Anyhow, I decided to go by Road riding my Honda Aviator 2-Wheeler. Only thing I was thinking is the Hot Weather which will make Honda Aviator Engine more hotter. Thus, I choose early morning to start my journey. It was 7am when I started my journey to Burdwan from Kolkata on NH-2.
After crossing Bally Bridge over River Ganga at Dakshineswar; first I stopped and took a snap of Road Sign stating Delhi Road & Bombay Road crossing.

Road condition of NH-2 (National Highway 2 / Durgapur Expressway) between Dankuni Toll Plaza to Palsit Toll plaza is awesome. Thumbs up for the National Highway Authority for repairing & developing & keep maintaining regularly.

It was an exciting long drive on NH-2 with amazing scenic beauty of agricultural lands. Major areas that I crossed during my Kolkata to Burdwan journey on National Highway-2 are Dankuni, Chanditala, Cafe Coffee Day, Singur, Azad Hind Dhaba Gopalpur, Dhanekhali More etc. It took only 1 hour 15 minutes to reach my destination in Bardhaman from Kolkata.
This journey wouldn't be possible without my wings i.e., Honda Aviator which run 160kms in a day in 31 degree temperature of April month.
