The Sinhagad Road Flyover is finally finished! It took six years to build and was done on October 15, 2023. This is important for Pune, a city in India, because it helps people travel better in the southwestern part of the city. The project cost ₹125 crores and had many problems, like land issues and surprise rocks, which made it take longer than planned.
While the flyover was being built, many people had to deal with traffic. More than 85,000 people used this road every day, and sometimes they'd to wait 45 minutes in traffic during busy times.
The flyover is very special because it has six lanes and is 2.4 kilometers long. There are sidewalks for people to walk safely and special lanes for emergency vehicles. It's made to be strong during earthquakes and uses high-quality materials. There are also bright LED lights and smart systems to manage traffic better.
Now, this flyover connects a busy area for IT workers to the main business area. It can help people save time—up to 65% less time during busy hours! It's also good for the environment because it can collect rainwater and has solar lights.
The flyover will help about 120,000 vehicles every day and can handle even more traffic in the future. This project will make travel easier for many homes and businesses along the Sinhagad Road.
