Talegaon-Chakan-Shikrapur Elevated Highway Route Map, Cost & Latest Update (2026)
The Talegaon to Chakan to Shikrapur Elevated Highway is a major infrastructure corridor spanning a total length of 53.2 km along NH-548D in Pune district, Maharashtra. With an approved project cost of ~₹4,200 crore (administrative sanction ₹3,923.89 crore; earlier MSIDC estimate ₹6,150 crore), the corridor features a 4-lane elevated road + parallel 4-lane at-grade road from Talegaon to Chakan, plus a 4-lane at-grade highway from Chakan to Shikrapur.
Designed to eliminate severe industrial traffic bottlenecks connecting the Talegaon MIDC, Chakan Auto Hub, and Shikrapur manufacturing hubs—which currently handle an intense traffic load of 40,839 PCU/day (Passenger Car Units per day)—the project is implemented by the Maharashtra State Infrastructure Development Corporation (MSIDC) / Government of Maharashtra under the DFBOT Model with a target completion timeline of 4 years from commencement (LoA issued on 29 April 2026 and civil work launched on the 26.30 km Talegaon–Chakan elevated stretch following the July 2026 foundation ceremony). Land acquisition requirements span approximately 56 hectares (with 38.79 ha listed in initial MSIDC estimates), and tolling will follow standard NHAI policy.

Corridor Alignment & Engineering Features
Project Alignment & Configuration Breakdown
Connecting Talegaon, Chakan, and Shikrapur along NH-548D, this 53.2 km highway serves as the primary East-West industrial artery of Pune district, linking the Mumbai–Pune Expressway with the Pune–Nashik (NH-60) and Pune–Ahmednagar (NH-753F) corridors. The approved scheme features a 4-lane elevated road and parallel 4-lane at-grade road between Talegaon and Chakan, followed by a 4-lane at-grade surface highway between Chakan and Shikrapur to seamlessly segregate high-speed regional freight from local industrial traffic.
DPR Status & MSIDC Implementation
The Detailed Project Report (DPR) prepared by NHAI was handed over to MSIDC. Following the Letter of Award (LoA) on 29 April 2026 and foundation stone ceremony on 18 July 2026, active civil construction is underway under MSIDC / Government of Maharashtra under the DFBOT Model with a 4-year completion target window.
Land Acquisition & Tolling Framework

The Talegaon Chakan Shikrapur Elevated Highway is a major road-upgradation project on NH-548D in Pune district, Maharashtra. The project covers the 53.2 km Talegaon-Chakan-Shikrapur corridor and is planned to upgrade the existing road, with an elevated section between Talegaon and Chakan and an at-grade section between Chakan and Shikrapur.
The Talegaon Chakan Shikrapur Elevated Highway route runs from Talegaon through Chakan to Shikrapur on NH-548D. The 53.2 km corridor serves the major industrial and freight movement belt between Talegaon, the Chakan industrial area and Shikrapur.
The approved alignment covers NH-548D from chainage 0/00 at Talegaon to chainage 53/200 at Shikrapur. The Maharashtra government's April 2026 corrigendum specifies the elevated structure from Talegaon to Chakan up to chainage 26/300, while the Chakan-Shikrapur section from chainage 26/300 to 53/200 is planned as an at-grade four-lane road.
The Talegaon Chakan Shikrapur Elevated Highway map covers the 53.2 km NH-548D corridor connecting Talegaon, Chakan and Shikrapur. The project alignment is divided into a 26.3 km elevated section from Talegaon to Chakan and approximately 26.9 km of at-grade road from Chakan to Shikrapur.
The complete Talegaon Chakan Shikrapur project corridor is 53.2 km long. The current Maharashtra government project description specifies about 26.3 km of four-lane elevated road from Talegaon to Chakan and about 26.9 km of four-lane at-grade road from Chakan to Shikrapur.
MSIDC currently lists an estimated project cost of ₹6,150 crore for the 53.2 km Talegaon-Chakan-Shikrapur project. Older tender and project documents contain different estimates, including package-level figures, because the project scope and procurement structure have changed during its development; the ₹6,150 crore figure is the current cost published on the MSIDC project page.
The project is planned as an upgraded 53.2 km corridor rather than a fully elevated highway along its entire length. The current Maharashtra government specification provides a four-lane elevated structure from Talegaon to Chakan for 26.3 km and a four-lane at-grade road from Chakan to Shikrapur for the remaining section.
The project is being developed through the Maharashtra State Infrastructure Development Corporation (MSIDC), in association with the Government of Maharashtra and the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways. MSIDC's project information states that NHAI handed over the DPR to MSIDC.
The project has reached the implementation stage, and its foundation stone was laid on 18 July 2026. However, the foundation ceremony should not be treated as evidence that the entire 53.2 km corridor is already under full-scale physical construction. Project execution, land acquisition and associated implementation activities are progressing.
The Talegaon Chakan Shikrapur project is an approved and launched road-upgradation project. MSIDC is the implementing state infrastructure agency, the foundation stone was laid in July 2026, and the project has a current listed length of 53.2 km and estimated cost of ₹6,150 crore. The latest government specification divides the corridor into a 26.3 km elevated Talegaon-Chakan section and a four-lane at-grade Chakan-Shikrapur section.
A major recent milestone was the foundation-laying ceremony for the Talegaon-Chakan-Shikrapur corridor on 18 July 2026 in Pune. The project is intended to address congestion on the industrial corridor, particularly around Chakan. Current MSIDC information lists the complete corridor at 53.2 km with an estimated cost of ₹6,150 crore.
The project is being developed to increase road capacity and improve connectivity along the heavily used Talegaon-Chakan-Shikrapur industrial corridor. The route carries substantial passenger and freight traffic serving the Chakan industrial area and surrounding manufacturing and logistics zones, and the elevated section is intended to separate through traffic from congestion at major surface-level intersections.
No. The entire 53.2 km corridor is not planned as an elevated road. The Maharashtra government's latest specification provides a four-lane elevated section from Talegaon to Chakan for 26.3 km, while the Chakan-Shikrapur section from approximately km 26.3 to km 53.2 is planned as a four-lane at-grade road.
Government statements in 2026 indicated a construction period of about four years for the project after commencement. Because the corridor has only recently reached its foundation-laying and implementation stage, the four-year period should be treated as the planned construction duration rather than a confirmed final opening date.
