In Pimpri Chinchwad, local leaders have called for key modifications to the proposed Nigdi-Chakan Metro route after the detailed project report (DPR) was submitted by Maha Metro to the Pimpri Chinchwad Municipal Corporation (PCMC).

During a joint meeting with PCMC and Maha Metro officials, MP Shrirang Barne, MLAs Mahesh Landge, Shankar Jagtap, Uma Khapre, and Deputy Speaker of the state Legislative Assembly Anna Bansode suggested several changes to improve commuter convenience. They demanded better provisions at Bhujbal Chowk and Wakad junction, removal of potential obstructions in Bhosari, and even the demolition of the Bhosari flyover if required.

Leaders also emphasised the need for adequate parking near Metro stations, a review of the Nashik PhataBhosari alignment, and assessment of whether the Godown Chowk-Chakan alignment model could be applied to this corridor. PCMC Commissioner Shekhar Singh confirmed, "Based on the inputs received from public representatives, the report will be forwarded to state government for further action. A meeting with the CM will also be scheduled soon."
