Transportation

Highways

Shikrapur lies at the junction of the Nagar road, also called NH753F (Pune-Ahmednagar-Aurangabad-Jalgoan Highway), and the Shikrapur-Chakan road, also called NH548D (Talegoan Dabhade-Chakan-Shikrapur-Ahmedpur in latur). The highways to Pune have heavy traffic due to extensive growth in the Maharashtra Industrial Development Corporation (MIDC) area in Ranjangaon and part of Sanaswadi.

Buses

Maharashtra State Road Transport Corporation runs frequent bus service that stops at the city.[8]

Pune Mahanagar Parivahan Mahamandal Limited (PMPML) also operates buses connecting Shikrapur to Pune, Pimpri-Chinchwad, and other cities. Students, commuters, and other users reach Pune on PMPML Bus No. 159 (Pune MaNaPa to Talegoan Dhamdhere bazar) and PMPML Bus No. 161(Wagholi to Karegaon- Ranjangaon).

Proposed railway project

The Pune Metropolitan Region Development Authority (PMRDA) has proposed a railway ring project to connect business hubs in Talegaon Dabhade, Chakan, Shikrapur, and Uruli Kanchan; Sambhaji International Airport at Purandar; and Pune Railway station. The proposed route begins in Talegaon Dabhade, linking the Pune-Miraj and Pune-Nashik rail routes, and would also connect with Metro rail.[9]

PMRDA-contracted Larsen & Toubro created a common minimum programme (CMP) to coordinate a geographical spread of 20 km2. The CMP includes Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC), Pimpri Chinchwad Municipal Corporation (PCMC), Pune Cantonment Board, Dehu Cantonment Board (DCB) and Khadki Cantonment Board (KCB) and Pune District.[10]

Proposed Wagholi-Shikrapur bypass

The Pune Metropolitan Region Development Authority (PMRDA) and the district administration had planned 6-laninng and forming new bypass to mitigate frequent traffic congestion on the stretch connecting Pune, Wagholi and Shikrapur.[11]

The plan involves a proposed bridge of 25 kilometres (16 mi) on State Highway 27, the addition of one lane in each direction, two bypasses and the improvement of crucial junctions. The government has approved ₹6.5 billion for the plan, and it is also part of the union government's Bharatmala project, which allocates ₹12.6 billion for road improvement. However, the project has been pending for many years.[12]
