CYG is coming to Pune!

As Pune gears up for the Commonwealth Youth Games, Shivajinagar, Aundh and Baner is getting a major facelift. The road widening and concreting work is in its final sprint, beautiful signages adorn the sides, footpaths springing up along with saplings and plants in traffic islands, the dividers getting a fresh coat of paint... and the new stadiums in Balewadi standing proud and happy, waiting for the big day, now less than a month away!

Wish you all the best, Pune! Let's rock!

Yup.. Pune-Satara road is adorned with new Road Signs too! I'm hoping that the traffic situation will get better too once the construction work clears out.

Quite honestly, in the evening it's almost irritating to drive on that road. Horribly congested.. Cars taking random turns to squeeze into the BRT lanes.. Very sad situation!

I thought the new red stripes along the road we saw today was really cool! Very sexy :)

I also love the large signages with the decorative blue and green boards, and that cute tiger mascot!
