Swargate Flyover Work To Begin In Oct
By sakshi sinha, Section Roads in Pune
Posted on Thu Jul 29, 2010 at 03:08:17 AM EST
 The decks have finally been cleared for construction of a flyover at the busy Swargate junction. An agreement is soon expected to be signed between the Pune Municipal Corporation and the Maharashtra State Roads Development Corporation in this regard. The PMC will bear the cost of the flyover, which will be constructed by the MSRDC. The construction work is expected to start by the end of October.
A decision to this effect was taken at a meeting held in Mumbai on Wednesday. Among those present at the meeting included public works minister Jaydatta Kshirsagar, mayor Mohansingh Rajpal, MLC Mohan Joshi, MSRDC vicechairman-cum-managing director Sonia Sethi and municipal commissioner Mahesh Zagade.
Speaking to TOI, Joshi, who has been pursuing the issue, said the PMC has been told to submit by September 1, a draft agreement to the MSRDC regarding the construction schedule and the phases in which it plans to pay the construction cost to the MSRDC.
Incidentally, the PMC has already paid Rs 40 crore to the MSRDC, but the latter has been insisting that the entire cost (of over Rs 110 crore) be paid in advance. The MSRDC has taken this stand as the PMC is yet to pay Rs 150 crore to the MSRDC, the cost incurred on flyovers and roads constructed under the integrated road development project.

PCMC To Spend Rs 18 cr To Asphalt Internal Roads
By akansha, Section Roads in Pune
Posted on Tue Jul 20, 2010 at 12:57:43 AM EST
The Pimpri-Chinchwad Municipal Corporation (PCMC), which has been facing criticism for neglecting ward level works, has plans to undertake asphalting of internal roads in the four zones within its limits at an expenditure of Rs 18 crore.
Municipal commissioner Ashish Sharma said, "The asphalting of the internal roads will be completed after the monsoon. Meanwhile, the PCMC will complete the formalities of inviting bids and awarding contracts." The PCMC has invited bids for the project in zone A worth Rs 4.66 crore; in zone B Rs 4.44 crore; in zone C Rs 4.66 crore and in zone D Rs 4.66 crore. The work has to be completed in nine months, including the monsoon months, after the work order is issued.
Speaking to TOI, Makarand Nikam, executive engineer, zone B, said, "The civic body will asphalt 25-km internal roads in each of the four zones. The bids have been invited and will be accepted till mid-August. The contractor will be finalised after receiving the approval of the standing committee. Later, the work order will be issued. The actual tarring work will begin in September-October."
The corporators cutting across party lines have been demanding that the PCMC concentrate on asphalting these internal roads, repair footpaths and drainage in wards and reduce expenditure on big projects like constructing flyovers.
NCP corporator R S Kumar said, "A major part of the civic budget is spent on big projects. Provision of Rs 4 to 5 crore for asphalting internal roads in each of the four zones is insufficient. Normally 30 to 40 per cent of the provision made for the roads in a particular year is used to pay the bills of roads asphalted in the previous year."
Sulabha Ubale, group leader of the Shiv Sena corporators, agreed with Kumar. "The PCMC is spending more than its share of money on the JNNURM projects, due to which it is unable to give more funds for providing small amenities like better internal roads, laying drainage lines and others," she said.
Independent corporator Maruti Bhapkar said, "The PCMC should give more funds to provide basic amenities, including asphalting all internal roads."

Car Breakdown Or Accident On Toll Highway? Seek Free Help
By ugesh sarkar, Section Roads in Pune
Posted on Sun Jul 18, 2010 at 11:02:56 PM EST
The next time you lose your way or suffer a car breakdown on a toll highway, don't panic. You can contact the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) which is duty-bound to come to the rescue of motorists on toll roads, a Right to Information (RTI) query has revealed.
It's not just route patrol services that you can use. A towaway crane, ambulance and fire tender too have to be provided by the agency that collects toll from motorists in need, the query revealed.
The RTI application was filed by Vedpal, a resident of south Delhi, after he was charged illegally by the NHAI authorities for getting his vehicle removed from the toll road after an accident.
Vedpal was asked to pay Rs.1,500 to get his vehicle towed away after an accident while returning to Delhi from Jaipur.
"It was 2 a.m. when I met with an accident. I called the NHAI authorities for help. They asked me to pay Rs.1,500 and when I refused they said they won't help me," Vedpal told IANS. "I was forced to pay the amount," he said, adding he had no option.

At Hinjewadi Chowk, Steps To Ease Traffic Bottleneck
By sakshi sinha, Section Roads in Pune
Posted on Thu Jul 15, 2010 at 02:58:19 AM EST
 Everyday, at Hinjewadi flyover, vehicular traffic comes to a grinding halt for quite long, causing hardships to commuters. In order to ease the traffic bottlenecks in the Hinjewadi IT Park area, the Pune traffic police, along with other agencies, have decided to ban right-turns at the Hinjewadi chowk, thus removing the traffic signal post soon. The traffic police department has also provided alternative routes for those who need to take a right turn. The plan will be implemented on experimental basis within 15 days.
Alternative routes after right-turn ban
- From Pune to Mumbai: Kaspate Vasti-Wakad village-Kalate Nagar
- From Mumbai to Hinjewadi: Bhumkar Vasti-Shivaji chowk in Hinjewadi-Mezza 9 hotel
- From Hinjewadi to Katraj: Bhumkar Vasti-using Hinjewadi flyover-PDCC Bank-Eden Garden service road
- From Katraj to Wakad Y junction: Wakad octroi booth-Saundarya hotel U turn-using flyover-Kaspate Vasti
As per a study conducted by the traffic police, only 14% of the total traffic flow at this square takes a right turn. "There is no point creating hindrance for 86% through the signal there," said Deputy Commissioner of Police (traffic) Manoj Patil. Patil, along with Pimpri-Chinchwad Municipal Commissioner Asheeish Sharma and Divisional Commissioner Dilip Band, reached this solution after a visit to the spot and subsequent meetings.

Highway Plan Hits Rocky Road
By ugesh sarkar, Section Roads in Pune
Posted on Mon Jul 12, 2010 at 03:11:30 AM EST
The UPA Government's ambitious plan of building two-lane highways through core Naxal-hit areas has made little progress. Even a year after the highway connectivity project hit the road in February 2009, not a single related contract has been awarded in Jharkhand and Uttar Pradesh and "scared" contractors are not showing any interest in the Maoist-affected Gadchiroli district of Maharashtra, forcing the Government to lower the bar for bidders.
The Government had approved the "Road Connectivity project in areas affected by Left Wing Extremism" in February last year with the promise of developing 5,565 kilometres (1,202 km national highways and 4,363 km State highways) in 33 Naxal-hit districts in eight States of Bihar, Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh, Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh and Odisha. Over a year down the line, the project seems to have hit a low patch with not even a single kilometre of work being awarded in
Jharkhand and Uttar Pradesh.
Even in Chhattisgarh, only 45 per cent of the sanctioned length of 1,298 km has been awarded for work.
One of the worst hit has been Allapalli division of Gadchiroli district where Maharashtra public works department (PWD) is not finding contractors for six projects.

Zebra Crossings Please: Pedestrians, NGO Survey Of Facilities Indicates The Road Ahead
By sakshi sinha, Section Roads in Pune
Posted on Fri Jul 09, 2010 at 01:50:45 AM EST
Citizens have a strong preference for at-grade (road-level) crossings, rather than using foot overbridges or underbridges (FOBs & FUBs), which are usually poorly designed. These are some of the findings of a survey carried out by the city-based NGO, Parisar.
The purpose of this survey was to understand pedestrians' perception about FUBs and FOBs and also take a look at the current state of these facilities. Each such facility in the city was inspected and pedestrians using them were counted. Three FOBs (over Katraj Road, Karve Road and Sarasbaug Road) and six FUBs (at Garware Circle, Sassoon Circle, Mhatre Bridge, Railway Station, GM Bhosale sunway and Shaniwarwada subway) were inspected and analysed on the basis of a checklist developed by Parisar.
The study revealed that at FOBs and FUBs where at-grade crossing with calculated risk was possible, people tended to take it. A majority of interviewees said the traffic situation in Pune had changed for the worse in the last five years.
The usability analysis of FOBs and FUBs found that they are poorly designed, particularly for children and the elderly. However, the surveys also showed that FUBs if they are well designed can be relatively more popular. A crowded FOB/FUB alone is not significant; it can just be due to lack of pedestrian-friendly alternatives, according to the study.
If a subway is well designed for the needs of its users, it gets broadly accepted. The Sassoon Circle, for example, is handicapped-friendly. Except GM Bhosale subway, all underbridges can be used with minimum effort. In most of the cases, the roads are lifted up so as to allow subway access with only a few steps. The same can be achieved for overbridges when the roads are lowered, said the study.

Rs 12,500 Crore Highway Projects Up For Grabs
By akansha, Section Roads in Pune
Posted on Mon Jul 05, 2010 at 12:52:13 AM EST
Infrastructure companies in the highways sector have an over Rs 12,500 crore opportunity waiting to be tapped in the next financial year.
Thirty eight state highway projects spanning across 3000 km and requiring investments to the tune of Rs 12,557 crore will be taken up on public private partnership (PPP) basis in 2011-12.
Feasibility study has been initiated for another six projects worth Rs 1044 crore.
According to a Planning Commission paper on state highways in the country, half of the projects up for grabs in 2011-12 will be in Uttar Pradesh.
According to the paper, 41 projects worth Rs 17,591 crore and connecting 4,531 km are currently undergoing bidding. Of these, 11 are in Maharashtra.
"This will come as a good option for regional players, who can scale up operations. So, it will be significant, but will take time," said Rajesh Samson, partner, (transaction advisory) Ernst & Young.
On standardisation of bidding procedure for state highways, Samson said, "States have already started using the model agreement of the NHAI. They have adopted it with some changes here and there."
According to the information received by Planning Commission from states/UTs, a total of 73 PPP projects have been completed with a total investment of Rs 8,353 crore.
Sixty two projects are currently under implementation, with an estimated investment of Rs 56,406 crore, which includes two expressways in Uttar Pradesh. The two expressway projects in Uttar Pradesh are the Yamuna Expressway and the Greater Noida-Balia expressway with a capital investment of Rs 9,935 crore and Rs 30,000, crore, respectively.
Andhra Pradesh is implementing a maximum number of projects (18) followed by Maharashtra (12) and Madhya Pradesh (10).

People Unhappy With One-Way On Flyover At Pimpri
By ugesh sarkar, Section Roads in Pune
Posted on Sun Jul 04, 2010 at 03:44:47 AM EST
People living close to are agitated over the traffic police's plans to make the one-way plan on the Indira Gandhi flyover permanent. The plan was introduced on June 14 on a trial basis.
Deputy Commissioner of Police (traffic) Manoj Patil has assured the agitated locals that he will consider their demands before taking a final decision on the vexed issue. Patil also told them to submit their written objections with the traffic police after about 100 people met him near Hotel Gokul chowk, close to the Indira Gandhi flyover, on Saturday.
Patil said the flyover is more than 25 years old and is proving inadequate now. Besides, it is not in accordance with the traffic rules as there is a junction on top of the bridge. "The local residents are facing some problems due to the one-way, but they should think of the convenience of commuters from all over Pimpri-Chinchwad," he said.
Former deputy mayor Vishranti Padale, who lives nearby, said, "The one-way plan is a big inconvenience for all of us. So we want the earlier two-way traffic plan to be restored. In Pune, there are small roads in Peth areas but still two-traffic is allowed there. The roads leading to the flyover are wide so there should be no one-way on the flyover." Padale argued that there are hospitals, railway station and the main bazaar area on the other side of the flyover. The one-way makes it difficult for people to reach these destinations, she said.

Swargate Bus Terminus To Have New Entrance Will Open On The Satara Road
By sakshi sinha, Section Roads in Pune
Posted on Fri Jul 02, 2010 at 02:39:52 AM EST
The Maharashtra State Road Transport Corporation (MSRTC) has given consent for a new entrance at the Swargate bus terminus, which is likely to reduce congestion at the busy Jedhe chowk, also called the Swargate junction.
The new entrance will open on the Satara road which will allow state transport buses coming from Satara to enter the bus stop without going to the Jedhe chowk.
The Swargate terminus is the main stop for state transport buses in the city witnessing movement of nearly a thousand buses every day. According to ST officials, 224 buses shuttle between Mumbai and Swargate every day; 310 on Satara route and 268 on the Solapur route. Besides, several inter-state buses also halt at Swargate. At present, the entrance gate for the terminus is located on the Satara road while the exit is on the Shankarsheth road. The new entrance will be near the traffic circle developed by the PMC on the Satara road opposite the BRTS office.
While the proposal was being discussed for past four to five months, MSRTC vicechairman and managing director Deepak Kapoor approved it only last month.
Member of Legislative Council from Pune, Mohan Joshi, who took efforts for reducing traffic congestion at the Jedhe chowk, said the Pune Municipal Corporation will initiate the work and the money will come from his MLA fund. The new entrance will be inaugurated on August 15. The MSRTC officials have agreed to carry out beautification works at the terminus. Besides they will allow autorickshaw drivers to drop passengers near the entrance, Joshi said.
Meanwhile, Joshi said he is also keen on having an early agreement between the PMC and the Maharashtra State Roads Development Corporation for starting work on the proposed flyover from Swargate to Market Yard.

Chaos Reduced, Overspeeding The New Problem On JM Road
By sakshi sinha, Section Roads in Pune
Posted on Wed Jun 23, 2010 at 03:59:18 AM EST
For sometime now, there has been a perceptible effort to streamline Pune's traffic through introduction of the one-way system on many of the city's arterial roads. Opinion, is however, divided on whether the experiments have proved a success or have merely added to the chaos. Pune Newsline takes stock of the traffic situation in the city
After six months of trial, the traffic police and the civic authorities converted the Jangli Maharaj Road as well as the Fergusson College Road into one-ways in February this year. While there was stiff opposition to the move initially, most of the residents now feel that the one-way system has improved the traffic situation. However they do point out that the new system has also resulted in overspeeding vehicles ,thereby risking the lives of commuters and pedestrians. There is now a dire need, say citizens, to have a certain speed limit in place for the area.
Under the new system, the stretch of road between S G Barve Chowk to Natraj Chowk on J M Road was converted to one-way even as vehicles were allowed to take a right turn from the S G Barve chowk to Modern college. Similarly, the stretch between the Good Luck chowk to Dnyaneshwar Paduka chowk on FC Road was converted to one-way at the same time. Vehicles were not allowed to take a right turn from Sant Tukaram Maharaj Paduka chowk on FC Road to GholeRoad. The experiment was launched on August 21 last year and though it was followed by protests from local residents and shop owners, most today are now comfortable with the one-ways. "Even though initially people had reservations about these two roads getting converted into one-ways, now there appears to be no issue.
The one-ways are running smoothly and have benefitted the traffic. The only thing is that trees coming in the way of traffic should be shifted to some other place," Balasaheb Bodke, local corporator, told The Indian Express .

Bavdhan-NDA Road Needs Dividers, Speed Breakers, Pedestrians Fear Here Is No Zebra Crossings
By sakshi sinha, Section Roads in Pune
Posted on Tue Jun 22, 2010 at 02:32:27 AM EST
 The three-kilometre long Bavdhan-National Defence Academy (NDA) Road has become a nightmare for commuters and pedestrians.
With rare presence of traffic police to curb speeding vehicles, mishaps on the road take place regularly. There is no zebra crossings for the pedestrians.
Resident of Bavdhan Khurd Sandeepan Deb is sore due to lack of presence of traffic police on the road during the peak hours. "We want traffic police, especially near the entrance gate of the BHEL company and ahead of Bavdhan police chowki. Their presence would surely be a deterrent for the erring drivers who drive at break neck speed," he added.
Resident of Ramnagar Colony Kalashree Pandit said senior citizens fear to cross the road especially in the evening when the traffic flow is the maximum.
"The traffic police should immediately take steps to tackle the problem," he said. Deputy commissioner of police (traffic) Manoj Patil said there is an urgent need to set up road dividers and speed beakers to tackle the problem.
"We will take up the issue with the PMC and are open to suggestions from local residents," he said.
Karve Road regional ward officer Nitin Udas said the PMC would take into account the suggestions and demands made by residents and ensure that the zebra crossing are painted at relevant junctions. "We will take a positive note of the demands made and the necessary changes will be incorporated in the best interests of the citizens," he said.The Bavdhan-NDA Road is prone to accidents because of lack of zebra crossings, dividers and speed breakers.

New Rules To Bring Order On Khadki Cantonment Board Roads
By sakshi sinha, Section Roads in Pune
Posted on Sun Jun 20, 2010 at 03:38:41 AM EST
 Eleven speed breakers, most of them near schools, will come up on roads in Khadki Cantonment Board (KCB) areas and height restrictions will be introduced to check movement of heavy vehicles on certain roads.
As per the directives of the traffic branch, the area near the bus stop maintained by PMPML and Karriapa Road will now see fewer heavy vehicles due to the height restrictions.
Surveys have been undertaken to change hawking zones. Parking zones for two-wheelers and four-wheelers are also likely to change. Accordingly P1 and P2 parking, signages will also be changed.
Inspector V V Palsule from the traffic branch said, "Parking restrictions are likely to be changed in many areas. Many roads that were earlier one-way have been widened, so we can have P1, P2 parking on either sides. No-parking in some areas will be lifted to take the load off the main roads and parking will be introduced on sub-arterial roads and lanes."
Speed breakers will come up at several locations, including Karriapa Road junction and Teen Marshal Road, and the roads in front of St Joseph's Convent Girls School, St Joseph's Boys School, Tyagi Memorial School on Burr road, Karki Business Centre on Eastern road, in front of MSEB office at the junction of Moledina Road and Dr Ambedkar Road, in front of Cantonment Board Hospital near Tikaram Alegaonkar School and in front of the All Saints School, on either side of the junction.

After 6-Year Hiatus, Nashik Phata Flyover Work Starts
By sakshi sinha, Section Roads in Pune
Posted on Sun Jun 20, 2010 at 03:21:37 AM EST
Six years after its bhoo mi pujan, construction of the Rs 99-crore World Bank-aided Nashik Phata flyover finally got cracking today.
District Guardian Minister Ajit Pawar laid the foundation stone of the bridge which will fly over rail, river and road. It is being touted as the first multi-layer flyover in the state.
Speaking on the occasion, S K Lohiya, officer on special duty (OSD), Ministry of Urban Development, said, the Nashik Phata flyover is the first project of the Central Government in the country under the Sustainable Urban Transport Project. "11 cities were selected for the project.
While Pimpri-Chinchwad was the last to join the project, it has become the first to implement it," he said.
Lauding the PimpriChinchwad civic body, Lohiya said the District Guardian Minister and Municipal Commissioner have been pursuing the projects with the Central Government with great zeal.
The Centre, he said, would extend all possible help for the completion of the project. "The Nashik Phata bridge would benefit road users by cutting down the travel time," he said.
Inaugurating the construction work, Pawar derided those who have been criticising the project saying the expenditure had escalated from Rs 30 crore to Rs 99 crore. "Yes, I know NCP chief Sharad Pawar had performed the bhoomi pujan of the project six years ago. Had it been constructed then, the bridge would have been much smaller and citizens would still be paying the toll," he said. "The flyover is 1,100-metre long and would have 100-feet wide roads which would sustain for next 50 years. To my knowledge, it is the first-ofits-kind in Maharashtra ," he said.
Pawar said the Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation (MSRDC), which was supposed to undertake the project then, had specifically said that it would impose toll on the citizens. "Not just toll, even petrol and diesel price in the vicinity of the flyover would have been jacked up.

Swargate Flyover Work Stalled,Delay Due To Difference Over Mode Of Payment Between Two Public Bodies
By sakshi sinha, Section Roads in Pune
Posted on Wed Jun 16, 2010 at 02:17:28 AM EST
 The deadlock between two public organisations over mode of payment has resulted in several road works in the city coming to a halt, including a flyover at the busy Swargate junction.
The Maharashtra State Roads Development Corporation (MSRDC) is firm on not starting any new road work in the city unless the Pune Municipal Corporation pays up Rs 250 crore, including Rs 140 crore for works done so far and Rs 110 crore advance for building a flyover at Swargate.
As a result, the fate of several works proposed under the Integrated Roads Development Project (IRDP) hangs in balance. While the PMC wants the MSRDC to start work on the flyover at the busy Keshavrao Jedhe chowk at Swargate immediately, the latter is not ready to oblige unless the civic body deposits the entire cost of the project in advance.
Officials from the municipal corporation and the MSRDC say there is no immediate possibility of the work starting as the issue is being resolved at the `state-level'. When the TOI phoned state minister for public works Jaiddata Kshirsagar, who is also the chairman of MSRDC, the minister refused to comment saying that he would speak only after meeting this journalist in person. Incidentally, in January last year, the then minister for public works Vimal Mundada had promised to hold a meeting in Pune to resolve the issue.
City BJP MLA Madhuri Misal has asked the MSRDC to start work on the Swargate flyover immediately since the government has decided to impose a surcharge on petrol and diesel in the city for funding MSRDC projects. Misal said she will raise the issue during the monsoon session of the State Assembly. Misal wrote a letter to the minister for public works saying that the work on the flyover, which was given to the MSRDC in December 2007, should begin immediately to reduce congestion at the busy junction. Other proposed works include flyovers at Rani Jhansi chowk near Balgandharva Rangmandir, Alka chowk, Mundhwa, Sancheti hospital, Simla office chowk, Vetal chowk, bridge at Sasanenagar and Tingrenagar-Lohegaon road.

Pimpri Flyover To Ahilyadevi Chowk Is Now A One-Way
By akansha, Section Roads in Pune
Posted on Tue Jun 15, 2010 at 01:29:23 AM EST
The road from Pimpri flyover to Ahilyadevi chowk on the Pune-Mumbai highway has been made into a one-way on an experimental basis.
As per the revised traffic plan, vehicles coming from Ahilyadevi chowk will not be able to go directly towards the Pimpri flyover. Instead, they will have to go to the Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar chowk on the highway and then take a right to go towards the Pimpri flyover and further towards the main market and Kalewadi.
The traffic branch has already made changes in the traffic flow pattern on the flyover. Accordingly, vehicles coming from Bhatnagar and going towards Pimpri chowk on the highway have to go via Ahilyadevi chowk. The right turn, which was earlier allowed at the `Y' junction for vehicles coming from Bhatnagar and going towards Pimpri chowk has been stopped.
The revised traffic plan which came into effect on Monday, will be implemented till June 29. Citizens can make suggestions and objections to the traffic control branch at Sadhu Vaswani road, Pune 1, in the next 15 days. The traffic branch has also proposed certain parking restrictions on the Thergaon road in Pimpri. Parking of all heavy vehicles from Ganesh temple Dange chowk to Aditya Birla hospital has been banned.
