24 Nov 2022 CW Team

NCC celebrated the launch of the 10.795 km Reach-1 (PCMC – Range Hills) section of Pune Metro’s 16.589 km Purple Line, which will connect PCMC – Swargate through 14 stations.

NCC was given the construction of the 31.254 km Reach 1 viaduct for the Pune Metro Phase 1 project in February 2017 with a contract of Rs. 4.99 billion. Its 6 km priority section between PCMC and Phugewadi was inaugurated in March 2022. Still, work on the remaining sections (Phugewadi to Range Hills) has been severely hampered by problems with land acquisition.

NCC used a casting yard at Tathawade to support the construction of this section, and 3900 segments were cast, with the final one being cast a few days earlier on October 19, 2022.
