Under the PPP model, private bodies such as contractors, builders and developers will spend money, and PMC will give credit notes which private bodies can use in building construction activities like; to pay the development cost, premium charges, and also transfer credit to developers.

The PMC has estimated the development cost of eight roads and one riverside bridge. The estimate committee has approved the estimated cost of Rs 150 crore. It contains eight CC roads in the Kharadi area and Bundgarden (Koregaon Park) to Mundhwa parallel to the right bank of the Mula-Mutha river and the Northern main road of Koregaon.
