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

MCGB has earmarked Parking areas in several places in south Mumbai and other parts of Mumbai suburbs. It would be helpful if these earmarked areas are listed on the official website (with regular updates) for citizens to know where to park vehicles. Secondly, staff of MCGB or Contractors should wear similar uniform across Mumbai to identify them quickly. Thirdly, MCGB should FIX the rate which should be displayed clearly so that citizens are not taken for a ride by demanding more during peak hrs

My suggestions are as follows: 1. Allow private players to build and operate the multilevel parking and make it easy to get permission to make such parkings. 2. Do not give any new shop license to open shop and mall if they cannot provide the free parking. 3. Parking at the shops and malls should be free. 4. Do not allow to sell car if the owner does not have parking space (except the small cars) 5. Do not allow parking except in designated parking space

i think for sanitation purpose, we must introduce separate mobile toilet in all cities for both males and females. This toilet facility will help most in the SWATCHH BHARAT ABHIYAN and OUR CLEAN INDIA

Public transport needs lot of improvement in terms of frequency and dedicated lanes, so that people would be discouraged to use private vehicles.This should sort out transport & traffic issue Strict discipline & angular parking should sort out parking issue.

National wide single Toll free number to be introduced for Road side assistance which works in near coordination with Traffic department, this helps in clearing the vehicles which are break down in city premises and leads to traffic congestion

The parking price should be different for various spot and should be much higher in very congested area. This will encourage people to park vehicle in remote or different spots.

Public Vehicles: 1.Majority of office premises are not having enough parking lots compared to employees working in them. Govt should check such commercial premises and ensure the parking slots are developed 2. parking lots are to be developed in PPP model using the govt land and the same can be hired to companies/commercial building which doesn't have parking facilities 3.Residential apartments/houses are to be rated based on their parking spaces which provides concession in property tax

The concept of shared parking should be encouraged. Neighbouring establishment should share their parking space. Like any office requires parking in daytime and restaurant requires it in evening. By sharing it both can reduce their congestion by using each other's parking on different time.
