The Pune Metropolitan Region Development Authority (PMRDA) has started a big plan to clean up the Mumbai-Pune Highway. They'll check for illegal buildings and places that shouldn't be there three times a year. These illegal structures can cause traffic jams and aren't safe for drivers.
Recently, PMRDA did a great job by removing 2,478 illegal structures from the highway. This means they took away buildings that were taking up space where cars should go. Because of this work, they've cleared a huge area of 247,800 square feet. This is a big step to make roads safer and better for everyone.
Before taking action, PMRDA sends notices to people who own these illegal structures. This way, people know what's happening, and it helps everyone work together. By telling people first, there's less fighting about the removal.
To work better, PMRDA teams up with other government groups. This helps them deal with more cars and make sure there are enough roads for everyone. Working together makes their clean-up efforts stronger.
PMRDA also watches the highway closely to make sure no one puts up illegal structures again. They keep checking the area regularly and act quickly if they see any new problems. By doing this, they help make travel easier and safer for everyone who uses the highway.
This project shows how important it's to take care of our roads and cities.
