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

Paid parking places (buildings) should be built in all public areas, e.g., railway stations, parks and recreation areas, malls, office areas, etc. Street parking should be charged heavily on weekdays and be free only on weekends when rush is not there. People collecting parking fees should be government staff and not ad hoc party appointees.

In Mumbai lot of space is taken over by illegal hawkers & shops. Reducing illegal vehicles & more than 15 year old vehicle will further give more space on Road. When the Government can provide and sell space to builder lobby then they can easily arrange space for parking. Underground parking near to every station should be created. The area near to the station to be freed from hawkers and auto rickshaw. Heavy vehicles should be avoided during traffic hours (morning 7 to 10 and evening 6 to 9).

We can develop parking building always...but the best idea which will help all will develop a smart transport system which will encourage tppl to use them instead of the private vehicles.. We also need law enforcement from our very slack authority to make it work..

Step 1: Please do make designate paid parking areas. No parking place should be marked as "No Parking" in *big* letters in a clearly *visible* and *unambiguous* manner. Step 2: After that, please start penalizing people who violate. Lock is more effective that toeing. Step 3: Create multi-storied, safe, parking places associated with ALL railway stations.

Improve Public Transport . This is critical . There has been zero planning in Mumbai . The city just grew . Roads are narrow , always potholed . We need to have reasonable ways to commute through public transport .

Plenty of public property has potential for underground/basement parking facility which can be exploited. Secondly, mass public transport system in Arabian sea. Thirdly, mass decentralisation of State Offices with full empowerment and minimum dependency on their respective HQ. Fourthly, creation of multiple Business District to decongest Nariman Point & Fort.
