Work on the Rs 16.85 billion multi-modal logistics hub at Chakan, Pune, is progressing rapidly, with the project expected to transform freight movement in the region. The facility is being developed under the Centre’s flagship Bharatmala Pariyojana scheme to enhance India’s logistics efficiency.

Spread over a vast area, the hub will integrate road, rail, and warehousing infrastructure to enable seamless goods transfer and reduce transportation costs. It is also expected to ease congestion on key freight corridors and improve supply chain reliability for industries in Pune and beyond.

Officials said the project will incorporate modern technology, green practices, and advanced cargo handling systems. Once operational, it will serve as a critical node in India’s logistics network, strengthening trade competitiveness and supporting economic growth.
