Pune Ring Road (Officially PMRDA Ring road) or Pune inner ring road is one of the three ring roads planned for construction in and around the city of Pune, India.[1] Pune Metropolitan Region Development Authority claimed that the road will decrease traffic congestion and provide better access to the fastest growing areas. The road will be 173 km long and will service twenty-nine villages by connecting all highways around the city.[1] The cost is estimated at ₹104.08 billion (US$1.2 billion).[2] The other two ring roads are MSRDC ring road and High-capacity mass transit route.
The Pimpri-Chinchwad Municipal Corporation, Pune Municipal Corporation and Pune Metropolitan Region Development Authority are responsible for the road plan and purchase of the required land. The Public Works Department suggested that the Design-Finance-Build-Operate-Transfer model be used.
