PUNE: The Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) is expected to open the city's longest flyover, stretching 2.12 km from Vithalwadi to Funtime Theater on Sinhagad Road, to public in the last week of April.

Though construction of the flyover was completed by the end of March, installation of streetlights and signage is underway. Delays in scheduling a formal inauguration had triggered criticism from citizens, who alleged that political scheduling was holding up the much-needed infrastructure.

Pune municipal commissioner Rajendra Bhosale recently inspected the flyover on a two-wheeler and directed officials to complete the remaining work within eight days. Sources say chief minister Devendra Fadnavis is likely to attend the formal inauguration, although an official date has not been confirmed.

The flyover is part of a larger ₹118 crore project that includes the construction of three flyovers between Rajaram Bridge and Funtime Theater on Sinhagad Road. The 650-metre flyover at Rajaram Bridge Chowk was inaugurated earlier this year. Work on the third flyover, connecting Goyal Ganga Chowk to Prakash Inamdar Chowk, is 70% complete and expected to be ready within the next two months.
