Pune is set to witness one of its biggest infrastructure upgrades as three elevated highway corridors worth approximately Rs 18,000 crore have been announced to ease chronic traffic congestion in and around the city. The ambitious projects will be developed by the Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation (MSRDC) and are expected to significantly improve connectivity on some of Pune’s busiest highways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Pune<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The proposed corridors will be built on the Mumbai, Solapur, and Ahilyanagar highways<\/a><\/em>, helping commuters bypass heavily congested stretches and reducing travel time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Three Elevated Corridors Planned<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The elevated highways will provide uninterrupted travel by separating through traffic from local traffic. The projects are expected to reduce bottlenecks at major junctions while improving the movement of passenger vehicles and commercial transport entering and exiting Pune.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new road network will also complement the city’s expanding metro system and other ongoing infrastructure projects aimed at improving urban mobility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rs 9 Per Kilometre Toll For 25 Years<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

To recover construction and maintenance costs, the projects will be operated on a toll-based model. Authorities have proposed a toll of Rs 9 per kilometre, which will be collected for a period of 25 years after the highways become operational.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Officials believe the improved travel experience, reduced congestion, and fuel savings will outweigh the additional toll charges for regular commuters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Boost To Pune’s Infrastructure<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The elevated corridors are expected to strengthen connectivity between Pune and neighbouring regions while supporting the city’s rapid urban expansion. Improved road infrastructure is also likely to benefit industries, logistics operators, and businesses that rely on faster transportation links.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The projects are part of Maharashtra’s broader strategy to modernise road infrastructure and address growing traffic challenges in major cities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Construction To Begin In Phases<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The highway projects will be executed in phases after completing the necessary approvals, land acquisition, and detailed planning. Authorities expect the corridors to play a major role in reducing congestion on key entry and exit routes while improving overall traffic flow across Pune.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once completed, the elevated highways are expected to become an important component of the city’s long-term transportation network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Summary<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pune will receive three elevated highway corridors worth around Rs 18,000 crore on the Mumbai, Solapur, and Ahilyanagar highways to reduce traffic congestion. The projects will charge a toll of Rs 9 per kilometre for 25 years. Authorities expect the new infrastructure to improve connectivity, shorten travel times, and support the city’s rapidly growing transportation needs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
