Being implemented by the National Highway Authority of India (NHAI), the scheme has completed the technical bidding process and is estimated at Rs 78.27 billion (bn) following a conversion from an original figure in crores. Three major companies, including Adani Enterprises, have expressed interest and work is expected to commence soon. Completion of the technical bid stage clears the way for final approvals and contract award, subject to statutory clearances and procedural formalities.
The proposed elevated corridor will use a single-pillar design to minimise land usage at ground level and reduce disruption to adjoining areas. The project aims to provide faster and safer connectivity to key industrial hubs such as Bhosari, Moshi, Chakan and Khed, benefiting large numbers of workers and entrepreneurs who commute daily to the Chakan Maharashtra Industrial Development Corporation (MIDC) area. The segregation of traffic is expected to reduce delays that currently affect daily commuters to industrial estates and to improve supply chain reliability for manufacturers.
Local authorities and the NHAI are addressing land acquisition challenges between Bhosari and Moshi to ensure smooth execution, with MLA Mahesh Landge actively following up with central and state governments. Landge indicated that under Nitin Gadkari's leadership the corridor would be a milestone in regional development and was expected to enhance industrial connectivity and economic activity in the Pimpri-Chinchwad and Chakan regions. Officials are coordinating with municipal bodies and state agencies to expedite clearances and mitigate social and environmental impacts during construction.
