PUNE The Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) on Tuesday reopened Phadke subway in Kothrud, much to the relief of pedestrians. While Phadke subway was opened following complaints by civic activist Vivek Velankar, other subways in the city are either closed or filled up with mud and rainy water.
The city has a total of 17 subways for pedestrians. The subways at Deccan Gymkhana and Pune railway station has been operational with good response, but other such structures are lying idle due to lack of or mixed response.
Of the 17 subways, three are allowed only for vehicles with one each at Bharati Vidyapeeth on Satara road, Wakadewadi and the third near Pushpamangal hall close to Bibwewadi.
