Pune-Konkan Travel Set for Revolution: Tamhini Ghat Game-Changer Plan Underway

• A game-changer plan is underway in Tamhini Ghat to resolve traffic congestion and high accident rates on the Pune-Konkan route.
• The National Highway Authority is preparing a blueprint for an alternative road or tunnel, promising smoother and faster travel.
• This new route will significantly improve connectivity between Dighi Port, Mangaon industrial area, and Pune.
• Two options are being considered: a new road via Panshet to Mangaon-Dighi Port, or widening the current ghat road with a tunnel between Dongarwadi and Tamhini.
• The project aims to reduce travel time, enhance safety, and benefit Pune and Western Maharashtra.
