Moro/Qazi Ahmed wala route is pretty doable. i did it with my family in mid november (twice - both ways). however, bad patches will be everywhere and will slow down speed. i did it after sunset on my way back to karachi and i will not at all suggest this route in darkness

Alhamdolillah, came back safely after doing Kashmir visit, early in this month.
It took 8 hrs from Karachi to Sukkur Via Jamshoro - Sun- Qazi Ahmed- Mooro -Sukkur..
Karachi to Mooro in 4 hours and again 4 hours from Mooro to Sukkur.
Same time consumed on return Journey, however road condition were comparatively good.

Just reached sukker from karachi 20.12.24
took 8 hrs road. Conditions are poor , villages around ,limits your speed limit..N5 Highway
Secondly and obviously will not recommend any one to travel at evening time on this route ,
Terrible conditions , no lights on N5 highway
Limited space lanes and very very heavy traffic ..
Take precautions , do not rush the best achieve time is 8 Hrs understand it before ,if you are going to rush it is Dangerous trust me...
Be patient and travel on that route in day time ...
