The Pune district administration has directed officials to accelerate road and infrastructure work in the Hinjewadi-Maan-Marunji area. District Collector Jitendra Dudi ordered the expedited acquisition of land for six development-plan roads and instructed officials to complete the transferable development rights (TDR) process within a month, with construction targeted to begin by December 2026.
Two of the proposed roads will be prioritised after farmers indicated they were willing to provide land through the floor space index (FSI) mechanism. Officials have been asked to obtain consent from landowners for the remaining four roads, prepare a time-bound acquisition schedule and submit a construction plan at the next review meeting. Pothole repairs, road-shoulder maintenance, removal of encroachments and regulation of heavy vehicles were also included in the directions.
The review meeting covered traffic congestion, civic amenities, electricity, water supply and access to stations from Baner, Balewadi and Hinjewadi Phase 2 and Phase 3. Representatives of the Pune Metropolitan Region Development Authority, Maharashtra Industrial Development Corporation, Public Works Department, police, Pimpri Chinchwad Municipal Corporation and other agencies attended the meeting.
Dudi also directed officials to begin procedures for transferring 6 acres to the Maharashtra State Electricity Transmission Company for an electrical substation. The Maharashtra Jeevan Pradhikaran has been asked to prepare a presentation on a proposed 2 TMC water supply plan, while the civic body will coordinate waste collection with nearby gram panchayats. Departments must submit updated reports covering utilities, traffic management, security deployment, bus services, sports facilities and waste-processing plants at the next review.
