Pune: The Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Gahunje will host a Test match between India and New Zealand from October 24 to 28.

With a significant influx of spectators expected to arrive in private vehicles, traffic congestion is anticipated in the surrounding area.

To manage the increased traffic flow and prevent gridlock, the traffic police have introduced several changes to traffic routes in the Gahunje area for the duration of the match.

Key Traffic Diversions:

Vehicles from Marimata Chowk to Masulkar Farm via Kiwale Nala: Entry will be restricted, and these vehicles will instead be diverted through Krishna Chowk.
