Home Buyers in Mumbai: MahaRERA Struggles with 8000 Pending Complaints
Real Estate Mumbai:following the traffic police’s decision to ban heavy vehicles in the city’s red zones to ease congestion, developers and construction material associations in Pune have raised several concerns.
They argue that the ban will impose a significant financial burden on businesses and citizens constructing homes, leading to project delays and increased costs.

The traffic administration has introduced a new schedule with dedicated routes for heavy vehicle movement in the city.
After identifying red zones based on black spots, accident-prone areas, public spaces, and school zones, the Traffic Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) declared a complete ban on heavy vehicles within the city limits.

Kapil Gandhi, Management Committee Member of CREDAI Pune Metro, acknowledged the importance of citizen safety but questioned the fairness of singling out construction vehicles.
