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

Make people aware about use of public transport. To start with divide areas in mumbai where on particular day in a week no parking should be allowed thereby forcing people to use public transport. This will gradually make public transport efficient as transport agency will also be forced to give better service. Simultaneously people will start using car pooling and clubbing their transport needs.

Sir, Jai Bharat Rearchitecting of the Mumbai City is now impossible. First it requested to scrutinise all the Govt land deals for the 30 years. It can disclose some land scam that can be beneficiary for govt to accommodate basic infrastructure of the city in near future. Second Multilevel & underground parking may solve the problem. Thirdly no new project should allowed without facility of parking.

Multi level parking is the only suggestion. Government should create bulidings with 12-13 levels of marking near the places where traffic is more. All new buildings malls, Govt offices, Societies should create 3-4 level of parking and allow others to park them with fees.

Some how we always try to create problem and then find solution. The policy of prevention is better than cure is seldom in practice. The increase in usage of personal means of transport is the route cause. Like residential complex we need to construct parking complexes at all junctions. This will accommodate more vehicles in less space.

To encourage parking of cars in parking places, rates should be very less. for two hrs it should be free. It should be mandatory to make parking in every house. Parking charge of Rs 1000 per month should be charged from Cars owners who do not have parking in his house.

Maharashtra co-op act that governs housing societies has good provisions on car parking rules for CHS. This allows for minimum 1 car park for every flat, rotational parking etc however there is hoarding of parking space by members and the rules are not implemented. This alone can take care of parking issues in lot of areas.

A comprehensive city transport system should be created. Public transport should be made more efficient and connectivity to public transport "bus-stops" and "stations" should be made as convenient as possible. Parking should be made expensive and the revenue should be used to make public transport more convenient. Electronic parking meters should be introduced with payments through credit or debit cards.
