The Pimpri Chinchwad Traffic Police has taken proactive measures to enhance the efficiency of vehicular movement in the Wakad and Hinjawadi areas by announcing significant modifications to traffic routes. These changes are aimed at alleviating congestion, ensuring smoother transit, and addressing the challenges posed by increased traffic to and from the park, as well as the ongoing metro construction work.
With a focus on creating a safer and more streamlined commuting experience, a comprehensive strategy has been devised to optimize traffic circulation. The new traffic regulations are set to be implemented starting August 9th and will impact specific sections of the roadways.
The key changes outlined in the official traffic order are as follows:
- Right U-Turn at Marunji Y Junction: Vehicles intending to take a right U-turn at Marunji Y Junction en route to Lakshmi Chowk will follow a designated route via Kasturi Chowk from Vinode Corner. This change is aimed at reducing congestion along this crucial route and ensuring a smoother flow of traffic.
- Unidirectional Traffic: Traffic moving from Marunji Y Junction towards Kasturi Chowk will now follow a unidirectional route. This adjustment is expected to enhance the organized flow of vehicles and overall safety.
- Diversions at Kasturi Chowk: The traffic route previously used from Kasturi Chowk towards Marunji Y Junction will now be diverted through Vinode Corner. This strategic diversion is intended to efficiently manage traffic flow and optimize road usage.
It’s important to note that these changes will not impact essential service vehicles such as fire brigades, police vehicles, and ambulances.
These proactive traffic adjustments underscore the commitment of the Pimpri Chinchwad Traffic Police to creating an improved urban mobility experience for both residents and commuters in the Wakad and Hinjawadi areas. By optimizing traffic routes and minimizing congestion, the initiative aims to enhance the overall commuting convenience and safety of the region.
