Maharashtra’s 105 km eastern ring road to pass through 46 villages

The Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation (MSRDC) has been granted permission by the state Public Works Department (PWD) to hold a joint measurement survey for the proposed 105 km eastern ring road, starting from the Urse toll plaza on the Pune-Mumbai expressway.

MSRDC officials told the media that the eastern ring road would pass through 46 villages of these tehsils. They also said that the MSRDC and district administration would have to acquire a total of about 1,585 hectares, including about 859 hectares of private land, totally worth approximately Rs 5,000 crore.

A senior official from the MSRDC said that the land acquisition in these tehsils would be complex considering the value and possible resistance from the landowners and farmers. They will have to hold a series of meetings with them to convince them to give their lands for the project.

He also said that they are chalking out their strategy, and the district collector has already appointed land acquisition officials from the revenue department. They will be working with the department.

The official further told the media that the proposed road would significantly reduce traffic congestion in Talegaon Dabhade and Chakan MIDC areas as heavy vehicles would directly connect to the state and national highways and that currently, these vehicles ply through cities and towns and are creating traffic issues in these industrial zones.

The MSRDC has further completed the land survey of 170 hectares of land that is required for the proposed 68 km western ring road, which will pass through Haveli, Bhor, Mulshi, and Maval.

Patil, who makes the presentation to the project affected families in the meeting, said that five villages, two in Maval and three in Bhor, have opposed the survey and that they are going to hold meetings with them.
