Wakad-Balewadi Bridge Nears Completion: Pune-Pimpri Traffic Relief Imminent!

• The Wakad-Balewadi bridge over the Mula River is in its final stages, connecting Pune and Pimpri-Chinchwad.
• The bridge, part of the 'Smart City' project, will significantly reduce travel time and traffic congestion for commuters.
• It will directly benefit those traveling to Hinjawadi IT Park, Balewadi High Street, educational institutions, and commercial areas.
• Work within Pimpri-Chinchwad Municipal Corporation limits is complete, but a land dispute on the Pune Municipal Corporation side (Balewadi) is delaying its opening.
• A lawsuit between a farmer and Pune Municipal Corporation over a 30-foot plot's compensation is preventing the bridge from becoming operational.

Why It Matters: Wakad-Balewadi bridge completion promises major traffic relief, pending resolution of a land dispute.
