Pune is the second largest city in Maharashtra, with over 5 million people. It has experienced rapid growth in vehicles, which has led to increased traffic and pollution problems. Pune has various transportation options, including roads, railways, an international airport, and public buses. However, the non-motorized infrastructure such as footpaths and cycle tracks has not expanded accordingly, despite many residents relying on walking and cycling for transportation. Initiatives are underway to improve public transit and build new transportation infrastructure, but Pune continues to face challenges from its growing population and vehicle usage.
