Activists flay Pimpri-Chinchwad Municipal Corporation's plan to cut 544 trees for developing a BRTS route from Kalewadi phata to Dehu-Alandi road

The proposed 11.2-km BRT route will begin from Kalewadi phata road on Aundh-Ravet road and will terminate at Dehu-Alandi road.

The PCMC plans to widen this road to 45 metres by cutting 544 trees.

A 200-year-old banyan tree near Dhangarbaba temple in Kalewadi, which provides shade to visitors to the temple, also faces axe.

Meanwhile, the PCMC has completed its week-long drive to remove encroachments along this road. The civic body has removed around 80 constructions that were blocking widening of the road from Kalewadi phata to Kalewadi-Chinchwadgaon bridge.
