Pune district collector Jitendra Dudi has directed officials to accelerate land acquisition for six proposed Development Plan roads in the Hinjewadi-Maan-Marunji area and complete the Transfer of Development Rights process within a month. Road and infrastructure work is scheduled to begin in December 2026. The directions were issued at a review meeting attended by officials from the Pune Metropolitan Region Development Authority, Maharashtra Industrial Development Corporation, public works department, police and local civic bodies. The meeting examined traffic congestion, damaged roads, water supply, civic amenities and infrastructure requirements in the industrial belt. Dudi instructed departments to expedite tendering, administrative approvals and the preparation of project proposals, estimates and tender documents. Funding has been approved for stormwater drainage, junction improvements and other infrastructure works in Hinjewadi. Officials were also asked to submit a time-bound schedule covering land acquisition and the start of construction at the next review meeting. Landowners have agreed to receive compensation through floor space index for two of the six roads, and acquisition for those projects will be taken up in the first phase. Separate discussions will be held with landowners involved in the remaining four roads. The collector also directed agencies to repair potholes and road shoulders, remove encroachments, regulate heavy vehicle movement and improve coordination between road-owning authorities. The meeting reviewed last-mile links between Metro stations and nearby industrial and residential areas in Baner, Balewadi and Hinjewadi Phases II and III. Dudi asked officials to begin transferring 6 acres to Maharashtra State Electricity Transmission Company for a new substation. The Maharashtra Jeevan Pradhikaran was directed to prepare a plan for using 2 TMC of water for Hinjewadi and surrounding areas, while the Pimpri-Chinchwad Municipal Corporation was asked to work with gram panchayats on scientific village waste collection and disposal. Officials were also told to identify unauthorised dumping sites and take legal action.
