- Siddharth Gadkari

PUNE: While the Central Railway (CR) has announced a 45-hour block for the demolition of the remaining part of the old Sadhu Vaswani Railway Overbridge (ROB), the railway block and consequently the demolition faces delay due to increased traffic during the Christmas holiday season.

Another obstacle is the relocation of slumdwellers under the flyover with 40 slumdwellers in the area still to give their consent to the relocation to the Hadapsar slum rehabilitation authority (SRA) scheme.

The CR has announced a 45-hour block for demolition of the remaining part of the old Sadhu Vaswani flyover which connects Queen's Garden and Pune Station. There will also be a two-hour block daily, affecting the Pune-Miraj and Pune-Hadapsar routes. However, the railway block may face delay due to increased traffic during Christmas holiday season.
