Driving Lansdowne to Delhi: what this corridor is like
Expressway-first routing
Delhi–Meerut, Dwarka and Yamuna expressways change the drive time by an hour; the driver picks the one that is open, not the one on the map.
Airport and terminal exact
IGI T1, T2, T3, Jewar and Hindon each have their own pickup zone and fare; the booking names the terminal so nobody circles.
Night and early-morning runs
The NCR fleet runs 24×7 with no night surcharge — the same fare at 3 AM as at 3 PM.
What the Lansdowne to Delhi road is actually like
Delhi to Lansdowne is two roads in one. The first is the plains run out of Ghaziabad on the Delhi-Meerut Expressway, quick if you are on it before the morning rush, then the slower state highway through the sugarcane belt of western UP, where in the crushing months from November to March tractor trolleys piled high with cane crawl along the edge and cut everyone's speed. Cheetal Grand at Khatauli is the halt for breakfast and a clean washroom; after that it is Bijnor, Najibabad and a pause at the Sidhbali Baba temple outside Kotdwar. Draw cash at Kotdwar, because there is no ATM in Lansdowne. The second road begins at Kotdwar: forty kilometres of proper ghat through Dugadda, narrow, twisting, with sections that have no parapet, first through sal and then into oak and pine as the air cools. We take it in daylight. In July and August small slips can close the road for hours; in January the mornings are misty and the cantonment sits close to freezing, though snow is rare.
