Pune: The revered Palkhi processions of Sant Dnyaneshwar Maharaj and Jagadguru Sant Tukaram Maharaj are set to arrive in the city on Sunday (June 30).

In preparation for the large influx of devotees, significant changes have been made to the city's traffic management. Major roads will be closed to accommodate the processions and ensure the convenience of the Warkaris and devotees.

To assist drivers and manage traffic efficiently during the Palkhi processions, the Pune Traffic Police have coordinated with Google Maps to provide real-time information on road closures and alternative routes. This information will be crucial on the day of the Palkhi arrival and departure, allowing citizens to navigate the city more easily.

Deputy Commissioner of Police (Traffic) Rohidas Pawar stated that the use of Google Maps will help disseminate information about traffic changes, closed roads, and alternative routes effectively. The dedicated Google Maps link for this purpose is https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=1NudV8Rsb6grJP82jhCKyn3uzeGFSJLI&usp=sharing. Citizens are encouraged to use this link to stay updated on the latest traffic conditions.

The Palkhis will be stationed in the Nana-Bhavani Peth area, and information about traffic changes in this region will also be available on Google Maps.

The processions will continue their journey on Tuesday, July 2, and details about the departure ceremonies will be made available on Google Maps as well.

PMPML has also increased bus services from various parts of the city. PMPML will operate 106 bus trips to Alandi from key locations including Swargate, Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC), Hadapsar, Pune Station, Nigdi, Bhosari, Hinjewadi, and Chinchwad. Additionally, 30 buses will run daily to Dehu from Pune Station, PMC, and Nigdi.

On June 30, as the Palkhi departs from Alandi, 27 buses will be available starting from 2:30 AM, departing from Swargate, Pune Station, Hadapsar, and PMC to Alandi.

The Palkhi will depart from Pune on July 2, with organized bus services from Mahatma Gandhi Bus Station to Pune Station, Warje Malwadi, Kothrud Depot, Nigdi, Chinchwad, and Alandi. Additional bus services will be available from Shivarkar Garden to Katraj and Kondhwa, and from Magarpatta to Mundhwa, Chandan Nagar, and Wagholi.
