Construction Starts on Nashik Outer Ring Road Ahead of 2027 Kumbh Mela
Construction has begun on multiple stretches of Nashik's 66-kilometre outer ring road, a key infrastructure project in Maharashtra costing approximately ₹7,613 crore. Managed by the Maharashtra State Infrastructure Development Corporation, the project includes seven construction packages with a 12-month completion target. Funded partly by the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways, the four-lane road with six-lane capacity will feature bridges, underpasses, and viaducts. It aims to improve traffic flow and support the 2027 Simhastha Kumbh Mela by diverting through traffic from Nashik's city center.
