Rawalpindi to Lahore via GT road

[mujtabaayan]

I have to go from Rwp to Lahore and will opt for GT road because I have a short stay at Jhelum.
Can anyone suggest if using Sialkot motorway can be beneficial to avoid rush and traffic from Gujranwala till Lahore on GT road?
If so, then also suggest which interchange is best to enter Sialkot motorway to reach Lahore?

why dont you use google maps with live data near wazirabad
i am pretty sure unless and untill there is a massive traffic stop/jam
map will never suggest u that (probably its way to much additional distance added)

I recently traveled 3-4 times from Gujrat to Lahore.
1st time, I went through G.T Road (i.e. via Gujranwala,Muridke etc).
2nd time, I tried LSM (Lahore-Sialkot Motorway). The only feasible option is to take Sambrial Interchange (the start point of LSM from this side). For this, I had to take Wazirabad-Sialkot Road. This route could be better, if wazirabad had a bypass towards eastern side too, and also Wazirabad-Sialkot Road has a lot of big potholes.End result was that it took almost same time as if I had taken G.T Road. But this route is around 30km longer as well.
For next 2 times, I again shifted to G. T. Road.
So, my suggestion would be to stick to G.T Road. Go through Gujranwala city,, I mean avoid taking bypass.
I can only think of 2 advantages of taking LSM.
1- U will see (explore) this new route as well.
2- The scenary astride LSM is breathtaking. green crops on both sides is a treat to watch.
