A multi-storey flyover in Pune will soon come up at Nashik Phata chowk on Pune-Mumbai highway. This flyover will be first of its kind and will help reduce congestion in the area. The Pimpri-Chinchwad Municipal Corporation will develop the flyover at an estimated cost of Rs 65 crore.
A bridge across Pavana river and railway tracks will also be constructed as part of the flyover. Nashik Phata chowk is a junction for Pune-Mumbai and Pune-Nashik highways, which is heavily congested. A flyover here would provide a non-stop drive on the highway between Dapodi and Nigdi.
Prequalification of tenders is under way. The flyover will complete in the next three years.
