Pune – Sambhajinagar Expressway – Information & Status Update

225 km Pune – Sambhajinagar (Aurangabad) Expressway by MSIDC is a proposed 6 lane access-controlled highway with a route alignment through Paithan and Ahmednagar regions in Maharashtra.

This greenfield expressway will be developed under Bharatmala Pariyojna (BMP). The project’s Detailed Project Report (DPR) has been finalized but not made available online.
