They have been allotted a job, they want to finish it in any way, without beither caring for the users of BRTS & the others. I suppose they have been regularly visiting Swargate as a part of the BRT Route Planning Team in the recent past. State Transport buses coming from Satara Road side either 1] Take a turn towards Market Yard Road, using the small & busy Nehru Marg, take a turn on Shankerseth Road http://www.punecorporation.org/betterroads/Blogs/ShowBlog.aspx?ArticleID=197http://www.punecorporation.org/betterroads/Blogs/ShowBlog.aspx?ArticleID=197We bought our first home with many dreams in this society, to find very soon there are endless problems. The road near the entrance is filled with Garbage. PMC representtaive claims its cleaned regularly, but how i wish someone could go there and see for themselves what the cleanliness has lead to. During rains...it was a pond of human excreta, Pig excreta and dump of garbage from nearby slums. With rains gone, this has turned into dried up waste..river bank is equeally littered and used openlhttp://www.punecorporation.org/betterroads/Blogs/ShowBlog.aspx?ArticleID=196http://www.punecorporation.org/betterroads/Blogs/ShowBlog.aspx?ArticleID=196Hello All, I stay at Shefalika Heights on Paud Road, Shivthrith nagar, This is a problem with these stray dogs, I have seen the number of these dogs rising by month near my society and they are irritating as they keep barking in the night. Other problem is they stay in a group so this could be a problem to kids and even adults as they could attack anyone anytime! Can any one suggest something to curb the increase or should I say the existence of the stay dogs. I wanted to raise a complaihttp://www.punecorporation.org/betterroads/Blogs/ShowBlog.aspx?ArticleID=195http://www.punecorporation.org/betterroads/Blogs/ShowBlog.aspx?ArticleID=195The non-existent road which is supposed to connect the Baner Main Road to Highway from "Shroff House" has deteriorated to a level where is could turn out to be fatal. Two-wheeler riders drive on this road always under the fear of slipping and falling. Ladies and kids who normally go on two wheelers are in danger of hurting / breaking their limbs should they fall. Last year, the road was made partially from "Shroff House" to "Supreme Palacio" housing society. Even this portion has been damhttp://www.punecorporation.org/betterroads/Blogs/ShowBlog.aspx?ArticleID=194http://www.punecorporation.org/betterroads/Blogs/ShowBlog.aspx?ArticleID=194Hello All, As the exams of 10th and 12th std exams are round the corner I would like to share a piece of information which will definitely help the students to cope up with their exam fear and will boost in them the willingness to learn and score in their exams.I know of one centre at Pune named as Buzan who have launched a unique technique of mindmapping and is the only authorised centre of India. Mindmapping is a simple but powerful technique which captures information and keehttp://www.punecorporation.org/betterroads/Blogs/ShowBlog.aspx?ArticleID=193http://www.punecorporation.org/betterroads/Blogs/ShowBlog.aspx?ArticleID=193Its quite some time now that we are talking and reading about the exclusive bus routes allocated / reserved through the center of the artery roads of pune. Satara road, hadapsar road to start with......and sinhagad road & a couple of other roads to follow with. Today we have this model implemented, and we, as users of the new system surely have a voice to comment on the systems insignificance specific to our own Pune city! While proposing this system by some of our leaders / city administrathttp://www.punecorporation.org/betterroads/Blogs/ShowBlog.aspx?ArticleID=191http://www.punecorporation.org/betterroads/Blogs/ShowBlog.aspx?ArticleID=191I am just an ordinary citizen who has been watching things happen but never voiced an opinion. But from now on , i am going to do it. The road from Wakdewadi to Harris Bridge has been so badly dug that there is so much problem while travelling. Also diversion is so horrible that it creates a whole lot of confusion.. How much time it will take? Are there ways of tackling the way in a better way. Can the road digging process taken in a phase manner or not??? Cant we citizens come up with a solhttp://www.punecorporation.org/betterroads/Blogs/ShowBlog.aspx?ArticleID=180http://www.punecorporation.org/betterroads/Blogs/ShowBlog.aspx?ArticleID=180I am very happy with the progress in pune.But still some things are too irritating to believe.I am not talking about big flaws in the works going around but small things. A small example a small small patch of road on sinhagad road from Manikbaug to Vadgaon phata. There is huge dust and sand around,It is good that it will become a concrete road ,fine ,good.But it it is a big work and it will take a long time.Accepted but At least pmc can clean the the road and give us a relief from dust.

Are we caught in between PMC and PCB wars? The road connecting the army area going to new developments such as Amar Ambiance, Clover Belvedere, Sopan Baug, Empress Garden View Society, etc. etc. has been in a terrible state for 2 long years. The contractor who made the road never did any proper ground work and just put tar over mud. The entire stretch of about a km is in terrible shape and getting worse day by day. http://www.punecorporation.org/betterroads/Blogs/ShowBlog.aspx?ArticleID=176http://www.punecorporation.org/betterroads/Blogs/ShowBlog.aspx?ArticleID=176Tell me, which is the most beautiful, most pristine, most unpolluted and most verdant place in Pune? I’ll tell you – it’s a lovely place called “Girinagar”. Pune has changed – for the worse. The pleasant, salubrious, tranquil, stress-free, easygoing, cozy, affable Pune I once lived in no longer exists. Every nook and corner of Pune has suffered the ravages of “modernization” – except one place – Girinagar. With the mighty Sinhagad Fort towering as a Sentinel, Girinagar is a fascinating plahttp://www.punecorporation.org/betterroads/Blogs/ShowBlog.aspx?ArticleID=175http://www.punecorporation.org/betterroads/Blogs/ShowBlog.aspx?ArticleID=175On the evening of the 4th of July 2008 I had the good fortune of attending the concluding ceremony of the 150th Birth Anniversary of Maharshi Karve [18th April 1858 – 9th November 1962] graced by the august presence of the President of India and eminent dignitaries. It was indeed a memorable function organized superbly by the Maharshi Karve Stree Shikshan Samstha at Karve Nagar [Hingne] in Pune during which the President and a distinguished array of exalted speakers paid eloquent tribute to Mhttp://www.punecorporation.org/betterroads/Blogs/ShowBlog.aspx?ArticleID=174http://www.punecorporation.org/betterroads/Blogs/ShowBlog.aspx?ArticleID=174I regret the strong language in this blog but it's very mild if you look at the what we are experience. As of today Mundhwa Road the people of Mundhwa are facing pathatic and disgustingly bad situation just because of stupidity of the road contractor. The work for the road from Koregoan Park to Mundhwa has started Year Back. As a common sense first one lane should have been completed and then after that the other lane should have been worked upon.
