The riverfront development is nearing completion, and the civic body plans to plant trees along the stretch.
The Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) has created a 300-metre sample belt for a riverfront development project near Bund Garden. The riverfront project has been divided into 11 packages. The work of two packages between Sangamwadi to Bund Garden and Bund Garden to Mundhwa started on the ground.
The Pune civic body had earlier planned to complete a sample stretch of 300 metres between Chima Garden and Bund Garden in January when the city witnessed the G20 summit. However, it was delayed and is now close to completion.
The civic body has planned the project on a 44 km stretch. Two tenders were approved for the 3.7 km stretch from Sangamwadi to Bund Garden worth INR 265 crore and for the 5.6 km stretch from Bund Garden to Mundhwa worth INR 604 crore.
