This development would surely excite a lot of motorists up in the north of the country. The much publicized Yamuna Expressway, a 165-km six-lane freeway, was inaugurated yesterday. This freeway should enable the travellers to cover the distance between New Delhi and Taj Mahal in just two and a half hours! As expected, users would have to pay toll fees for the usage of the new freeway. Toll would be collected from the cars at the rate of Rs. 2.10/km. Toll booths have been positioned at 38 km, 95 km and 150 km from Greater Noida.Â
Unlike the Mum-Pune expressway, which is closed to two wheelers, the Yamuna Expressway is open to two wheelers for a toll charge of Rs 150. While this is surely a good news for every bike enthusiast out there, we wonder how well wlll the ‘not-so-capable’ 100cc bikes co exist with the high speed traffic. What do you feel? Â Â
Jaypee Group, the builders of the Yamuna Expressway, has decided to give a six-day free ride to the users of the expressway and hence, charge no toll till August 15.

2 wheelers Sharing an E-way with 4 Wheelers is Hazardous. Driving a 4 wheeler on Mumbai – Pune -way itself needs a lot of concentration with faster cars zooming pat the left lane.
I wish I could be there before 15th………………….
I am not agree with the two-wheeler's less then 500 CC on the Yamuna Expressway. Even in the other countries also they wont even allow two-wheeler's which are less then 500 CC. If they allow it also then that causes so much accidents on Yamuna Expressway.
You forgot the cattle and the street dogs 😀
Woohoo…. and sadly Woe… Coz I think that the Immense Indian Strategy of Non-Strategic Riding Sense might Prevail. and probably due to a few Faulty Idiots, the Whole Biking Fraternity, might suffer…
All I can think of right now, is if the Yamuna E'way allow only Fully Armored, Riders. Now seeing that only the guys with proper suits are the ones, who have some sense of highway riding on bikes, they might be able to handle the pressures of an E'way Ride. Other Doodhwallas, and 5+1Family Members on on bike, should not be allowed to start on the freeway,.. I hope that Sense Prevails, but then again I am asking for a Miracle.
