The greenlit TP schemes cover regions including Vadachiwadi, Autade-Handewadi, two sections in Holkarwadi, and Fursungi, which falls under the Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) limits. These sanctioned plans are set to facilitate the construction of around 6.8 kilometers of the planned Ring Road, expected to ease traffic congestion and enhance connectivity across the region.
Originally formulated to ensure systematic land acquisition and planned urban expansion along the Ring Road’s alignment, these schemes can now transition into the implementation phase, with PMRDA initiating groundwork and clearance efforts.
Public Notices Issued for 15 Additional TP Schemes
In parallel with the approvals, PMRDA has released public notices for 15 newly proposed TP schemes, essential for securing land for the 65-meter-wide Ring Road corridor. The schemes encompass several strategic villages, including:
Wagholi
Avhalwadi
Manjari Khurd 1, 2, and 3

Maan (Mulshi Taluka)

To ensure inclusive and cooperative urban planning, the PMRDA has pledged to engage directly with local stakeholders—including elected representatives, residents, and farmers—before finalizing development drafts. Meetings will be conducted at the village level to address concerns, gather feedback, and tailor plans accordingly.
According to PMRDA, Metropolitan Commissioner DR. Yogesh Mhase, “The sanction of the four town planning schemes will speed up infrastructure development, especially the Ring Road. For the 15 proposed new schemes, we will involve local leaders and farmers through village meetings to incorporate their input and address their concerns.”
