Right Turns Banned at Key Market Yard Junctions From October 22, Here is the New Route You Need to Follow
Pune traffic police have introduced temporary traffic diversions in the Market Yard area from October 22 to manage congestion caused by ongoing underground Metro construction between Swargate and Katraj with right turns prohibited at several key junctions and alternative routes designated for motorists. Vehicles from Upper Bibwewadi via Chandralok Chowk heading toward Pushpamangal Chowk cannot turn right toward Swargate, Market Yard and Utsav Hotel and must instead turn left, proceed past the Tanishq showroom and take a U-turn at the Aranyeshwar bus stop before heading to Swargate. Vehicles from Swargate via Pune-Satara Road and those heading from Market Yard toward Satara, Katraj and Bibwewadi will be diverted via Pushpamangal Chowk passing the Wellness Medical Store and Bhapkar petrol pump. Right turns from Pushpamangal Chowk toward Market Yard and Utsav Hotel Chowk have also been prohibited.
Vehicles from Market Yard heading toward Swargate cannot turn right at Utsav Hotel Chowk and must use Vakhar Mahamandal Chowk or follow the U-turn route via Pushpamangal Chowk, the Tanishq showroom and the Aranyeshwar bus stop. Traffic police have urged all motorists to follow the revised routes and cooperate with authorities to minimise disruption during the Metro construction phase. The Market Yard area is a critical junction point for traffic moving between Swargate, Satara Road, Bibwewadi and Katraj making the construction-phase diversions particularly impactful for freight vehicles, commercial operators and daily commuters who rely on this corridor. For south Pune commuters the Swargate-Katraj Metro construction is now visibly affecting surface-level traffic movement and the diversions announced on October 22 are likely just the beginning of a prolonged period of altered traffic patterns as TBM excavation ramps up in the coming weeks.
