However, residents have expressed reservations about this arrangement and are seeking a significant change in the project plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Local residents have demanded that the main Metro station and car shed should instead be developed beyond the gas shed at Khadakwasla. They believe placing these facilities in Khadakwasla would make the corridor more useful for both residents and visitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Why Locals Want Khadakwasla Station<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The demand for a major station and car shed at Khadakwasla is linked not only to public transport but also to the area&#8217;s broader development potential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Residents believe better Metro connectivity could make it easier for people to access Khadakwasla and surrounding tourist destinations. A major Metro facility could also encourage commercial activity and support tourism-related businesses in the area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pune Metro officials responded positively to the suggestion and said the demand would be communicated to senior authorities for consideration. The final decision, however, will depend on further planning and approval.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Flyover Also Proposed Along Metro Route<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Connectivity concerns are not limited to the Metro alignment. Local representatives have also sought a flyover between Kolhewadi and Nanded Phata, running alongside the proposed Metro pillars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The proposed flyover is intended to address growing traffic pressure in areas including Nanded, Kirkatwadi, Nandoshi and Kolhewadi. Local representatives suggested that a structure similar to the flyover at Nal Stop Chowk could be considered for the stretch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What This Could Mean for Pune<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Khadakwasla-Hadapsar-Kharadi corridor has the potential to become an important east-west connectivity link for Pune. As the city continues to expand, integrating Metro infrastructure with road improvements could help address both public transport demand and traffic congestion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For now, survey and alignment discussions remain underway. The demands raised by residents could influence how the project ultimately takes shape, particularly around the location of the main station, car shed and supporting road infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">60-Word Summary<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Khadakwasla-Hadapsar-Kharadi Metro project is gaining momentum as survey and alignment work progresses. While Kolhewadi is currently proposed as the starting station, residents want the main station and car shed shifted to Khadakwasla, citing better connectivity and tourism potential. Locals have also demanded a flyover between Kolhewadi and Nanded Phata to ease traffic congestion across surrounding areas.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Project Work Moves Ahead The proposed Khadakwasla-Hadapsar-Kharadi Metro corridor is showing signs of moving forward, with survey and route-alignment work currently underway.
