Pune Forms Local Traffic Committees and Enhances Road Repair EffortsPreviousNext

Pune continues to face persistent traffic issues despite multiple committees formed over the years to address problems like potholes, illegal parking, and congestion. The latest initiative involves establishing 34 local traffic police station-level committees to tackle area-specific challenges. Meanwhile, the Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) has committed to repairing potholes within a week and is setting up a new 160 tonnes per hour asphalt mixing plant in Shindewadi to improve road infrastructure and maintenance efficiency.
