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

-In highly populated cities like Mumbai where people don't have place to live,it's our responsibility to come apart from our comforts and use public transports. -Don't use vehicles for short distances.(Also good for health.) -Company/college should provide their own buses ,so that individual will not use vehicle. -If we have to do something ,just wake up!

In Indian cities parking has become very difficult due to lack of space as roads are narrow. This needs to be tackled in several ways; 1. Provide multi-storey parking towers where congestion is maximum. 2. Improve public transport including local trams and trains. 3. Encourage use of bicycles as in many European cities. 4. In all city expansions, ensure extra parking is provided for and for which charges can be levied.

....owner of vehicle can travel a distance of 1 km only without any passenger, may pick passengers from bus stops, which may leave more space in buses. Even motorcyclists can pool by having a pillion rider on way to their destination ( mobile apps can help ). Though this steps may reduce state govts revenue to some extent, it may help in a better life for mumbaikars.

......allow free parking ( state governments are collecting road tax, one time tax ) in by lanes on one side on odd and even dates with boards re designed as the one used in PUNE, ( pvt lanes in industrial areas leasing parking to pvt bidders, e.g. REUBEN PAY N PARK, in connivance with local traffic division ) reduce M.C.G.M. car parking charges ( only the bidder has to be present at the parking lot, not another contractor who is sublet the auction won ), CAR POOLING.....

READ CAREFULLY. Remove Autos and Taxis, increase number of CNG airconditioned buses, the jobless drivers of autos and taxis be absorbed to run this increased buses, one trip one a driver, another the conductor, both know whose shoe pinches more. Limit a/c cabs, cap their numbers, as only people who travel to staion or airport may use them, as having luggage, devise a foolproof car system, safe for owner of the cars as well as the occupant, no one should implicate other in false cases......
