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

BEST / ST / railways / mono / metro can make underground parking zone for other vehicles for additional cost. Water front boat parking should have cycle / bike rick parking for further connectivity for people & material.

People should be using public transport more and more, Making public transport safer, cheaper and clean would be a start. As for parking, building BMCs praking tower sounds good. But they should on pay by basis. and i suggest o keep the payment monthly and a little higher side that will encourage people to use public transport

like residential buildings, special parking towers only may be allowed to be erected or build by the BMC itself at specified key locations in the crowded office areas in south Mumbai up to Sion and Bandra along the coastal roads, and where charges be allowed to be collected on hourly basis. Proper policy must be drawn so that convenient parking is provided and companies running the parking industry pays due taxes and makes reasonable profits and suitable exit policy for it.

Dont forget cycles/ bikes, dabbewala parking, e-retail go down parking, delivery vehicles parking. Need rules in registering such entities & taking shops / establishment act to make provisions for such parking issues. Even bullock carts, horse carts etc are plied in some parts of city need to be identified for that restricted area for tourists etc only. Like cars it should have maintenance facilities within the premises. Approach to & fro from such parking zones be different for type of vehicle.

Improve Public transport like local train, bus & etc. Bring more Private sector in new mode of transport in air, water, land & underground. Make more Multistory Parking in Land, underground & sea. Make strict rule in which you cannot keep more than to 2 Vehicles for personal use. Make NO Hawker Zone near Tourist, Commercial, Bus Stand, Railway Station & etc.. Promote people to use more Public Transport... But after improving it. Increase the Parking Rate & decrease the time another can park.

New development implementation & increased registration tolls (one time) or running tolls (recurring) to avoid individuals movement & increase mass transport facilities. PPP basis FDI or CSR funds should be allowed. Certainty of time to connect one dot to another to be benchmarked & strive ot it achieve it. Redevelopment of CHS must be mandatory on cluster basis only.
