PSO for Pune Ring Road
The passenger and freight traffic around Pune city have been increasing at a rapid pace from highways such as Mumbai-PuneSolapur, Mumbai-Pune Satara Kolhapur highway pass through the city. The purpose of the ring road is to divert the passing by traffic from outside towards other cities, without letting them enter Pune. It will also provide connectivity to important areas of the city.
The Ring Road has been planned as greenfield with the following alignment: Maval–Khed–Haveli–Purandar–Bhor–Mulshi.
The Ring has been designed so that accrued benefits will flow to the larger section of the society. It will necessarily have significant impact on the development of areas along the proposed alignment encompassing all rural, semi-urban and urban areas.
The entire stretch of 173,7 Km traverses through 6 talukas.
The Project will act as a major impetus to the regional economy in terms of movement of goods and passengers.
