The improvements will include square enhancements, parking management, traffic control devices, and traffic separation techniques. The project will also involve completing missing road links, repairing damaged sections, enforcing no-hawker zones, addressing pending court cases related to roads, and taking appropriate measures for obstructing trees and establishments.
A mobile app will be developed to facilitate citizen participation and provide real-time updates on traffic conditions. The app will allow citizens to register area-specific problems, view solutions, and make suggestions for traffic improvements.
The Pune city traffic police has also entered into a special agreement with Google to gather information about the city's parking system, traffic congestion, changes in traffic, bus stops, auto stands, and PMPML stops. This data will be used to reduce the number of accidents in the city.
The project will classify Pune's roads according to their use and take special measures with the help of other local authorities. The main roads selected for this project are those with the highest traffic in the city. By prioritizing these main roads and increasing their carriage width, the project aims to boost traffic speed and road capacity.
This initiative is expected to bring significant relief to Pune's citizens, who have been struggling with traffic congestion and long travel times. With the collaboration of Pune Police, PMC, and Google, Pune is taking a significant step towards becoming a smarter and more livable city.
