After visiting Warje and Navale Bridge areas, NCP (SP) MP Supriya Sule criticised Pune administration over severe traffic congestion and poor management affecting residents.

Sule inspected Warje bridge construction work over the river in Baramati Lok Sabha constituency. One lane scheduled to open February, entire bridge fully open May. This will alleviate traffic congestion in Warje area. Former corporator Sachin Dodke and colleagues made special efforts ensuring completion.

Sule stated: "Citizens are exhausted and frustrated. There is no sign of proper management. Pune is struggling with water issues, garbage mismanagement and unbearable traffic jams." She noted several solutions had been suggested to authorities but not implemented.

Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar inspected work on the service road in Warje area along the Pune-Bengaluru National Highway. During inspection, review covered road quality and traffic convenience. At New Ahire Village entrance (Warje Malwadi, Pune), Pawar listened to citizens' issues and discussed development works, giving instructions to officials.

• The proposed flyovers at Karve Statue and Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar Chowk in Warje will carry road traffic below and the Metro viaduct above. Their combined preliminary estimate, including viaduct works, is ₹404 crore, based on 2021 rates with escalation to 2026; the tendered cost could vary by up to 10%.
• The 1.6-km Karve Statue flyover will run from near the Hanuman temple at Karishma Chowk on Karve Road to the Hotel Mirch Masala area near Dahanukar Colony. Its estimate is ₹327 crore; road widening is needed at some locations.
• The 500-metre Warje flyover will run from near D-Mart Chowk to about 50 metres before Canal Road. Its estimate is ₹77 crore.
• MahaMetro has asked Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) to fund the additional construction cost. PMC says it will bear the project cost but will scrutinise estimates and designs through a mutually agreed third party. Formal cost-sharing confirmation is pending; PMC approval for the Karve Road flyover was expected within a week. Approvals and tendering are next.

Pune Municipal Corporation plans two flyovers on Karve Road at Karve Statue Chowk and Ambedkar Chowk in Karvenagar, linking the area to the Mumbai-Bengaluru bypass. They will be developed alongside the proposed Pune Metro line from SNDT to Manikbaug via Warje; officials say major road works will be difficult after the metro opens. The stretch between Paud Phata and Warje will then have three flyovers, including the existing one at Karvenagar. The Ambedkar Chowk proposal dates to 2018 and has been revived with the addition of the Karve Statue Chowk flyover.

Before construction, PMC will conduct seven-day automatic-camera traffic surveys covering weekdays and holidays, assessing flow, travel patterns, speeds, delays, congestion, signals and junction waiting times. Studies will cover traffic modelling and impacts, land acquisition and affected owners, tenants and structures, five years of accident records, environmental effects on water, greenery, wildlife, air and noise, and possible resident relocation. A financial assessment will estimate land, construction, utility-shifting and maintenance costs, as well as benefits including travel-time and fuel savings, reduced pollution and commuter stress.
