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

There is only one solution to all problems viz.Pollution, parking, traffic jams in all the big cities. The solution is that all personal vehicles should be purchased on Cash and no loan shall be provided for purchase of personal vehicle be it Two wheeler or Four wheeler. There is one more logic for this. If a person do not have money for purchase of vehicle now then how he will maintain that vehicle and pay the installment. Initially Implement this solution for one year and see the result.

To address the issues relating to traffic in general: 1. Exempt vehicles upto 10 years age from PUC certificate.'Achche Din'. 2. Make the road cotractor responsible for levelling the Drainage Covers as well. 3. Keep the footpaths encroachment free. This will push the pedestrians where they belong. 4. Put Timers at all the signals. 5. Make left turns free for two wheelers at all times. Driving once made stress free, many problems including parking will start easing. Give facilities and training.

Indian Railways have millions of sq. ft space free on their land, so government can it & even government can develope second floor on terminals to use as parking & underground multi storey buildings are also a good option

1. Parking on the side of the roads should not be allowed.
2. At the present open parking spaces, new multistorey mechanical parking should be constructed. Use of local architects and artists can make these parking places blend with the existing architecture.
3. New underground multi storey parking places at the bus depot (over the bus depot) should be constructed.

Separate wing for parking needs to be developed. Parking area needs to be identified to avoid hindarance to traffic. Automated parking system needs to be developed means a car Parker should come in front of a pillar constructed by the new wing in that pillar he needs to raise a ticket for hour and day basis. The ticket should display the expiry of parking time. If car Parker fails to renew a reminder needs to sms to his mobile. A software needs to be developed for top up his parking account.

If public transport system is made cheaper,faster & good quality, I don't think people will use private vehicles. This will solve most of the problems like traffic jam, pollution (Noise + air).
At present conditions the quality of Road is so bad this results in more traffic jam, this increase air & noise pollution. The local corporators should

I heard that in China , there are restictions like number of vehicles allowed. Why cant we bring rules like number of cars this much only allowed in the city? That will reduce the pollution, pedestrains can walk fine, restricted traffic etc. Other can do car pooling. India is small country compare to population. everyone needs car that will bring restrictions in space. So we can bring this kind of rules.

Providing a few parking lots here and there will not help solve anything. It is more or less like Railway terminals being constructed piecemeal. No other city would have so many rail terminals-CST, Dadar, LTT and now Parel (proposed) on CR and BCT and BDTS on WR. By the time a new terminal becomes functional search begins for a new one eg new CST remodelling vis-a-vis Parel.
