Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar: The work on preparing Detailed Project Reports (DPRs) for the development of the city’s five major roads by the organisation Padeco is in its final stage. The actual construction work will begin only after funds are received from the government. The main road in Padegaon will be constructed by the public works department (PWD), following the DPR prepared by the municipal corporation. All remaining service roads and other associated works will be undertaken by the municipal corporation, said administrator G Sreekanth.
While speaking to media persons, on the occasion of the municipal corporation’s 43rd anniversary on Monday, the administrator said, “ Road widening initiative is planned for five roads.

A comprehensive detailed project report (DPR) is being prepared through Padeco for these roads. The DPR is expected to be worth approximately ₹2,700 crore to ₹3,000 crore. The administration, along with guardian minister Sanjay Shirsat, is actively pursuing funds from the government.
