Pune: Sadhu Vaswani Bridge Demolition Speeds Up After Final Hurdle Cleared; PMC Targets Nine-Month Completion for New Bridge

1. The long-awaited demolition of the 50-year-old Sadhu Vaswani Bridge in Pune is finally underway, with the final hurdles cleared.
2. The relocation of 20 remaining huts from beneath the bridge to the SRA scheme in Hadapsar has allowed the Pune Municipal Corporation to speed up the process.
3. Delays in securing a continuous block from the Railways and the presence of a slum settlement on the Camp side had previously stalled the demolition work.
4. The relocation of slum residents has now been completed, allowing the PMC to accelerate the demolition work.
5. The PMC, in coordination with the Railways, will dismantle the section over the railway line in phases to ensure train services are not disrupted.
6. The demolition work began on Wednesday, and the PMC aims to construct a new bridge within nine months, improving connectivity between Koregaon Park and the Cantonment area.
