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

The important factor is not creating policy but implementing the policy with transparency. Take example of Kurla L ward to BKC (via CST Road). I have seen scrap cars and parts are laying on the road for so many years. Intentionally Heavy articles kept on the road to safeguard adjacent area. Government agencies are not interested to take any step. Swachha Bharat Yojna should be implement near Mithi river. All scrap vendors are king of that road and we are wasting our time in traffic.

1.Charge of Parking should be more if time is more and low for low time. Should not be proportionate and no monthly concession 2.Parking authority should be empowered with full powers. 3.Hawkers needs to be managed strictly. 4.Common transportation should be availed though paid from parking to nearby stations. 5.Penalty on Roadside & illegal parking should be high. 6.Smart and easy parking payment option should be availed like smart card which includes the car registration details also.

1. Mumbai metro needs to be installed fast. Its span has to increase covering most the places. It has to go underground. Please get Mrs. Sridharan for Mumbai metro. 2. We have to consider for underground roads connecting Thane to Borivali / Kandivali passing through National park. Underground roads will not disturb flora and fauna of national park. 3. Sewree to Nhava link should also be considered underground. Such link can be operated throughout the year.

According to me the major issue regardng the parking of vehicles in Mumbai is the Hawkers by the road side. On almost every corner of a road in Mumbai we can find lot of hawkers which are doing business on the roads and due which we dont have parking space. If government put a very stringent law for the same then almost 40 to 50 % parking problem and also the traffic problem will be solved in a day.. Tell BMC guys to do their homework properly.

It is very dense city. Too much unplanned. Rise the vertical height of the city. Multilevel flyovers. City Expansion. Underground city network, a little deep so that can be easily done without disturbing traffic. Will also improve the drainage system. Also connect every single road with underground drain line at the junction with footpath with long steches.

suggestions are as; 1-Ensure to own reasonable & required number of vehicle to Mumbaiian. 2-A self-confirmed sense of leaving the place to parking whether for houses or shop etc. 3-Strictness to be followed while applying the Traffic / Parking rules etc. 4-A trained team of "Parking Regulator / Inspector" must be placed over the city for taking a serious cognizance to maintain the parking-sense to the Mumbaiin. ultimately, develop a 'Parking-Sense'to the Mumbai city.

Please implement Multi Level Parking lots. One more important thing is if we charge in huge amount, people rather using that facility will park road side or else where. Please have impose reasonable charges. Also, Have free shuttles from Parking complex to near by important places so that people dont face problems

GPS can be linked to indicate where the nearby approved parking places are there, so that the person who drives the car can identify the parking place using GPS easily and can park his car in a safe and trouble free manner.
