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

Let a group of honest and dedicated officers of transport department visit London. Private Cars are hardly seen as they are not allowed/ the parking charges are too high. Let the RED Buses run (ordinary and deluxe) Taxis may be permitted. This is happening in London. Adopt some thing which is good. Jai Hind.

Why only mumbai, why not Delhi. influential are making black money in contravention to our constitutional provision of lot preventing concentration of wealth in few hands. The charges are rocketed & have changed from Rs.10 for 12 hrs, to 4 hrs then to 2 hrs & now Rs.20 per hour. The objective is not clear, what for a person purchases a vehicle if taking it out is to be discouraged. The MRP should not be exploited due to shortage, poor fellow can't fold & pocket.GovtSchool bldgs can nightPark

Central Automatic Parking Garage at crowded places like Town, Bandra Linking Road and Hill Road. No Trucks/ Heavy Vehicles should be parked on either side except for dedicated Truck Terminals. School Buses should be parked inside the campuses. Campus should create underground or elevated park I ng places. In new residential buildings dedicated parkings ( without additional cost) proportionate to size of flat to be made compulsory.

There are extra long trucks, buses, containers carriers, wagon carriers. Need space for them to park. Speed at ports (air, sea, depos) will make vehicle movement faster. When certainty of travel time increases, bottlenecks like need of parking will be reducing. After certainty, TAT will further reduce dependency parking slots. Both has to go hand in hand.
