The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has unveiled its plan to construct a 12-meter wide service road paralleling the Mumbai-Bangalore Highway near Pimpri Chinchwad, with the aim of bolstering regional road infrastructure and connectivity.

The Mumbai-Bangalore Highway, designated as National Highway number 48, spans a width of 60 meters and traverses the jurisdiction of the Pimpri Chinchwad Municipal Corporation (PCMC). Aligned with the municipality's approved development blueprint, NHAI has put forth a proposal to establish a 12-meter wide service road on both flanks of the highway. The PCMC has formally requested the NHAI to integrate this service road scheme into the project and oversee its implementation.

This forthcoming road expansion will have an impact on various segments of the National Highway as it meanders through several localities:

- Wakad: The anticipated road length on both sides is roughly 3710 meters.

- Tathawade: The anticipated road length on both sides is approximately 5200 meters.

- Punawale: The anticipated road length on both sides is around 3400 meters.

- Ravet: The anticipated road length on both sides is about 2740 meters.

- Mamurdi: The anticipated road length on both sides is roughly 1400 meters.

- Kiwale: The anticipated road length on both sides is approximately 4400 meters.
