The vibrant city of Mumbai, home to over 12 Million people, is the financial capital of the country. In order to improve the quality of life, Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai (MCGM) wishes to improve the basic infrastructure.The city has seen a significant increase in the private vehicles over last few years. It has become increasingly difficult for citizens to find public parking places while they are on the move. In order to ease the parking woes of the citizens, MCGM proposes to adopt and implement a new parking policy. The new parking policy elaborates on-street parking (residential parking, parking near schools, and parking for tourist places) and off-street parking. Moreover, MCGM also envisages web based parking to be implemented and issue receipts using hand held devices.

As a pilot project, it is proposed to implement the parking policy in ‘A’ ward after receiving the necessary approvals.

Suggestions are invited from the public at large for improvement of the proposed policy.

The draft policy can be seen here: https://mygov.in/frontendgeneral/pdf/parking-policy-20122014.pdf

Parking policy should recognize that road space is limited and precious in Mumbai. Parking availability should not be based just on demand but also on capacity of roads to handle the traffic. Places with higher congestion should have more costly parking space. Location of parking should be such that it reduces congestion and traffic jam on main roads and diverts destination traffic to side roads / lots. Third there should be dedicated places for quick pick up and drop off negating need to park

Disband the Municipal corporation atleast MCGM. The organisation had been created to ensure that the citizens get a proper Infrastucture, Medical facilities, Education. I am sure none of this is being done even at 10% of the expectations, the entire tax generated by MCGM is used up for the salary of its employees apart from making it the most corrupt organsation. Do we really need it ?

Multi level parkings developed in the State Capital of Uttar Pradesh Lucknow are not being properly utilized as parking cost is much. Parking facility should be given free of cost instead of making it a source of income. Parking floors / spaces may be sponsored for business houses by providing them proper place for advertisement panels or LCD display.

In my opinion, encourage people to use the public transport and at the same side Govt should keep the public transport bit cheap and up to date. Secondly, Keep parking rates hourly basis. E.g .I saw here in NCR, parking for first 4 hours were Rs 40/- and later it was 100/- per hour. This kind of rate will lead people to use public transport. Also it will save the fuel as well and would have less congested roads...But at the same time Public transport has to be up to the mark.
