“Work on the Vanaz-Ramwadi route is on and the area is growing heavily populated. There are a lot of IT companies coming up there, too. Considering this, we felt that the route should be given extensions on these two patches. Accordingly, we have decided to ask the Maha-Metro authorities to prepare the DPR, since they are already doing the work for the remaining patch. After the budget estimate and DPR is in place, further discussions will take place.” Chairman of standing committee Yogesh Mulik  said

The work on Vanaz-Ramwadi route is in progress and the new routes will connect Ramwadi to Wagholi and Pune International Airport.

“A formal presentation of the Metro route was given to corporators in September 2017. During the meeting, I had demanded that this route should further be connected to the airport and Wagholi, considering the traffic. The proposal has been approved by the standing committee and I am sure the process will be completed soon.” Tingre said
