Pune: The demolition of the SPPU and E-Square flyovers would be completed by August 10, declared the Pune Metropolitan Regional Development Authority (PMRDA), on Tuesday.

The three supporting structures of the University flyover are expected to be pulled down by Wednesday and the area will be cleared by Thursday, PMRDA engineer said, adding, “The work of demolishing the E-Square flyover will begin in full swing after that.”
