PMC hikes road restoration charge to Rs 2,600 per metre

Road or pavement restoration charges in Pune are going to be increased to Rs 2,600 per metre from the existing rate of Rs 1,900 per metre by the Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC). The PMC has decided to increase the restoration charge of road or pavement that are dug by different service providers to lay cables or pipelines.

The Pune civic administration has proposed the matter before the standing committee. The PMC will also now charge Rs 2,600 per metre instead of Rs 1,900 per metre for laying open cables, Rs 3,600 per metre instead of Rs 2,900 per metre for laying cables covered with PVC pipes and Rs 4,500 per metre instead of Rs 3,800 per metre for laying cables covered with RCC pipes.

It further said those digging up roads illegally will have to pay thrice the actual charge. Road digging without permission of PMC will be regularised if the agency or person concerned paves it back and pays thrice the amount charged for digging up the area, it said. The earlier penalty was twice the charge for digging the road.
