MSRDC to Complete Pune Outer Ring Road by September 2027

The Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation (MSRDC) has successfully secured the necessary land for the Pune outer ring road project. This ambitious infrastructure plan, covering a distance of 138 km, is set to be completed by March 2025, with full operations expected to begin by September 2027.

During a review meeting with Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, new timelines were established for the project, which aims to reduce traffic congestion in Pune. The project will cover 83 villages, divided into eastern and western phases. The eastern phase spans 74.08 km from Urse to Shivare, while the western phase involves a 64.45 km circular road connecting Shivare back to Urse. The completion of this project is anticipated to greatly improve traffic flow in the region.

For the infrastructure project in Pune, loans have been secured from Hudco, and contractors have been assigned to various sections, with their work currently under evaluation. Despite some delays, the project is designed to offer heavy vehicles direct access to highways, helping to avoid congestion in central Pune. Local residents have been urging authorities to accelerate the project’s progress.
