Union Minister of State Murlidhar Mohol, addressing Pune’s City Traffic Advisory Committee, called for the city’s transport system to be planned with the next 50 years in mind rather than incrementally. Headline commitments include a projected addition of 3,000-4,000 buses in coming years, integrated planning across metro expansion, ring roads and bridges, and the formation of decentralised local traffic committees, expected to be constituted within the week.
The meeting drew PMC officials, police, the metro administration and elected representatives, signalling a coordinated push rather than a one-off statement.
This is more aspirational than shovel-ready – the concrete figures are headline commitments, not yet detailed schemes – but it is a useful “the city is planning long-term” signal. Read it alongside the Gadkari road package and the Hinjawadi plan as part of a broader week of Pune infrastructure momentum, with execution the thing to watch.
