Traffic diversions as trial run for double-storey flyover construction on Ganeshkhind Road

Traffic flow will be diverted around Pune University Square and connecting roads to Pashan, Baner and Ganeshkhind Road from December 23 due to the planned infrastructure construction in the area.

After the twin flyovers on Ganeshkhind Road — one at the Pune University junction and the other in front of E-Square theatre — were demolished, the Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) earlier this year approved a Rs 426-crore integrated infrastructure plan to construct a double-storey flyover along with three-grade separators and an underpass to resolve traffic issues in the area.

Officials from the Pune City Police’s Traffic Control Branch said when the work for the integrated project starts, changes will have to be made in the existing traffic flow.
