The proposed Khadakwasla-Hadapsar-Kharadi Metro corridor is undergoing survey and route-alignment work. Pune Metro officials met residents in Kolhewadi to explain the proposed route and address community concerns.

Kolhewadi is currently proposed as the starting station. However, residents have demanded that the main Metro station and car shed be developed beyond the gas shed at Khadakwasla instead, arguing this would improve connectivity for residents and visitors and encourage commercial activity and tourism-related businesses.

Pune Metro officials responded positively to the suggestion and said the demand would be communicated to senior authorities for consideration. Final decision depends on further planning and approval.

Local representatives have also sought a flyover between Kolhewadi and Nanded Phata, running alongside the proposed Metro pillars, to address growing traffic pressure in areas including Nanded, Kirkatwadi, Nandoshi and Kolhewadi.

Pune Municipal Corporation’s General Body approved declaring its intention to prepare a Development Plan for 23 villages merged into the city in June 2021, and appointed City Engineer Aniruddha Pavaskar as planning officer. PMRDA’s earlier draft faced complaints over agricultural land being designated for housing and reservations allegedly benefiting large developers; the state government ordered it cancelled and assigned a fresh plan to PMC. The Development Plan Cell will survey existing land use and plan for population growth and infrastructure needs over the next 20 years. The draft will be published for objections and suggestions; a state-appointed committee will hear stakeholders before a revised proposal goes to the PMC General Body and then the state for final sanction and notification. Officials expect a shorter-than-usual timeline, despite local bodies generally having two years to prepare a draft, because PMRDA completed substantial groundwork. Villages: Mhalunge, Sus, Bavdhan Budruk, Kirkatwadi, Pisoli, Kondhave Dhawade, Kopre, Nanded, Khadakwasla, Manjari Budruk, Narhe, Holkarwadi, Autad Handewadi, Wadachiwadi, Shewalewadi, Nandoshi, Sanasnagar, Mangadewadi, Bhilarewadi, Nimbalkarwadi, Jambhulwadi, Kolhewadi and Wagholi.

Heavy rain in Dhayari village and DSK Vishwa caused an overflowing drain at Barangane Mala to send sewage into a well, the locality’s main water source. Around 2 to 2.5 feet of dirty water collected around the well and entered it. Pune Municipal Corporation testing found harmful bacteria; the water supply was stopped, and residents were warned of a shortage for at least two days while the well is cleaned. The corporation began pumping out contaminated water and deployed tankers, which residents—especially in DSK Vishwa—said were insufficient. Water supply department head Nandkishore Jagtap said the well would be thoroughly cleaned before service resumed. Reports linked contaminated water to Guillain-Barré Syndrome cases and some fatalities in Dhayari, DSK Vishwa, Kirkatwadi, Narhe and Nanded. NCP’s Rahul Pokale said his complaint prompted action and called for more tankers.

• Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) plans a new bridge between Shivane and Nanded City; its project department has floated a tender to appoint a consultant for ground assessment and pre- and post-tender work. The existing bridge is low-lying and often submerges during the monsoon. Pune has 22 bridges across the Mula-Mutha river; the proposed bridge would add to that number.
• The Suncity–Karvenagar bridge, whose construction began in January 2024, is over 50% complete. It is expected to ease congestion in Karvenagar and Sinhagad Road.
• Dhayari-area congestion affects Dhayari Village Road, Dhayari–Narhe Road, Nanded Phata–Nanded City Gate and Lagad Mala–Dhayari Phata. Four DP roads planned for Dhayari 28 years ago remain largely undeveloped. President Droupadi Murmu recently directed the state Chief Secretary to act on the pending roads.
