However, the stretches like Laxmi Bhuvan Square to Ram Nagar Square, Maharajbagh Square to old VCA Stadium require either part-renovation or entire asphaltation. So, the NMC will start on-street parking on these stretches later, the report said.
According to sources in the civic body, parking will be state-of-the-art facilities. People will be able to know space availability at these locations before reaching there and can also book the same in advance. The reports stated that the main motive behind the “On Street Parking” is to regulate parking of vehicles on major roads, especially in market areas. The system will also help in easing traffic congestion.
