04 Jun 2021 CW Team

The Pune Metropolitan Region Development Authority (PMRDA) will acquire land and the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) to develop the Pune ring-road project, as per the decision taken in the meeting held by the PMRDA and NHAI officials recently.

In this regard, the PMRDA will send the proposal soon to the central government. PMRDA has decided to construct a ring road of 123.97 km long in the regional development plan.

In the first phase, the ring road was 90 m wide, and then it was decided to make it 110 m wide, the same as the Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation’s (MSRDC) ring road. However, the width has been reduced to 65 m again.

Moreover, PMRDA’s ring road length was 123 km but the distance between PMRDA and MSRDC is about 15 km.

Initially, it was decided to exclude the MSRDC ring road of about 38.34 km in the villages where these two ring roads are overlapping. PMRDA’s ring road will be of a total length of 85.63 km now.

NHAI officials told the media that the PMRDA is planning to acquire land through Town Planning (TP) scheme.

PMRDA CEO Suhas Divase said that the PMRDA’s ring road has already been included in the Bharatmala Pariyojana project. Therefore, PMRDA will acquire land for this road.
