Yangon–Mandalay Expressway
The Yangon–Mandalay Expressway (Burmese: ရန်ကုန်–မန္တလေး အမြန်လမ်း) is an expressway in Myanmar (Burma) that connects the country's largest city Yangon, capital Naypyidaw and second largest city Mandalay. Opened in December 2010, the 587 km expressway has reduced the travel time between Yangon and Mandalay to 7 hours from 13 hours by train and from 16 hours by the old highway. The highway, which does not meet international design, construction and safety standards has seen a spate of accidents since its opening, and has been therefore dubbed the "Death Highway" by exile-run news agencies.
