In a noteworthy development for the Chakan industrial area, official, Member of the Legislative Assembly for Bhosari, announced on X (formerly Twitter) that a substantial ₹170 crore fund has been allocated to address the persistent traffic congestion in the Chakan Industrial Belt. This initiative is poised to bring significant relief to industrial companies, workers, and residents in the area.
The project will focus on developing an alternative outer ring road for Chakan, with the objective of easing traffic flow and enhancing connectivity. The primary components of this project include: Medankarwadi to Rase Phata (2.5 km): This section will be developed to provide a smoother transit route, aiding in the decongestion of the main roads. Sanny Company, Nanekarwadi to Samruddhi CNG Pump (1.2 km): This critical stretch aims to enhance access to industrial sites and facilitate the easier movement of goods and employees. Hingane Chowk to Volkswagen Company, Kharabwadi (0.9 km): Improvements in this portion are expected to reduce bottlenecks and ensure better traffic management near major industrial hubs.
The development of these routes is anticipated to significantly alleviate traffic issues, thus enhancing the ease of doing business in the region. Industrial companies, workers, and local residents are expected to benefit from reduced travel times and improved road safety. A few days prior, the secretary of the Federation of Chakan Industries highlighted the dire traffic conditions in the Chakan industrial area. “The traffic situation in the Chakan industrial area has gone from bad to worse. We have written to the roadways minister Nitin Gadkari and other authorities about the situation. There are road accident-related deaths almost every day,” he stated. This new project is anticipated to provide much-needed relief to the residents and workers in the area.
Expressing his gratitude towards the Mahayuti government for approving this essential project, Mahesh Landge acknowledged the collaborative effort involved in securing the necessary funds and support. “Thanks to the Mahayuti government for approving this crucial project,” Landge posted, underscoring the importance of this development for the overall growth and improvement of the Chakan industrial belt. The allocation of ₹170 crore for the development of an alternative outer ring road represents a critical investment in the infrastructure of the Chakan industrial area. It is expected to not only ease current traffic congestion but also support future growth and development. The enhanced connectivity and reduced travel times will contribute to a more efficient industrial environment, bolstering the region’s economic prospects.
