The Pune Metropolitan Region Development Authority (PMRDA) has taken significant steps to ensure environmental conservation while developing the Maan-Hinjewadi to Shivajinagar Metro Line-3 project. To offset the impact of construction, 5,500 new trees have been planted, achieving a 100% survival rate. During the project, 1,305 trees were affected, with 557 being felled and 748 successfully transplanted. The trees have been planted in various locations, including the Department of Animal Husbandry and the NDA forest area in Bavdhan. Notably, technology plays a crucial role in this initiative, as each tree is geo-tagged and equipped with a QR code that provides detailed information about the species and its environmental benefits. The highest number of transplantations occurred in the Hinjewadi Phase-2 forest area, where approximately 3,000 trees were relocated and are now flourishing. This project highlights the PMRDA's commitment to balancing infrastructure development with environmental sustainability, as emphasized by Metropolitan Commissioner Abhijit Chaudhari.
