in every city, we have two systems of parking. one that is approved by local body and another which runs parallel and is controlled by mafias. therefore, all information about legal parking system of mumbai, should be availalbe in the website of mumbai nagar palika. so that citizens can identify, the authorised parkings. this site should be inter-active, so that citizens can send photos and videos of illegal parkings run by mafias. whether local corporators linked with mafia will allow this idea

WE HAVE TO FOLLOW THE MODEL OF PARKING LIKE CHINA & SOUTH KOREA, WHERE THEY HAD PUT MULTILEVEL PARKING ON THE CORNERS OF RESIDENTIAL PLACES & ALLOWING ONLY EMERGENCY VEHICLES TO ENTER THE RESIDENTIAL AREAS. THIS LEADS TO AMPLE SPACE FOR PLAYING FIELDS, NO POLLUTION, PERMOTING CYCLING & WALKING IN POPULATION ETC.

If Mumbai city has to be developed, big multi-level parking has to be developed above all railway stations. There should be parking fees, say Rs.500 to 100 per hour/vehicle. These fees should discourage people to bring their vehicle on metro roads.We should encourage use of public transport.

Pedestrians should be given excellent foot path. All metro double roads should fenced. Elevators should be provided for road crossing bridges. This will reduce traffic issues.

Traffic problem can be solved by creating new roads or by prohibiting parking of vehicles (including bicycles) on both sides of roads in which PUBLIC TRANSPORT BUSES are plying. In big metros, Govt. should collect "road use fee" of Rs.10,000/- per year and this amount should be used to create large scale parking complexes. We should encourage people to use public transport which should be more convenient and fast.

Respected Hon'ble PM, WE THE CITYZEN OF INDIA THINK THAT MUMBAI IS THE BIGGEST CITY OF INDIA.THERE ARE MUCH POPULATION COMPAIR TO OTHER CITIES OF INDIA.SO THERE ARE ACCUTE PARKING PROBLEM. THEREFORE WE SUGGEST THAT PARKING POLICY OF THE CITY OF MUMBAI REQUIRES MUCH MORE THINKING.

Especially in the peak hours patrolling to be effective such that it averts improper parking at the roads which affects traffic. Punishments can be little bit severe on the persons creates nuissance to the traffic. Big shops and hotels (business centres) to be involved and educated to keep proper parking on the vehicles parked at the front of their complex.Awarding can be given on the business complex, people who maintained good parking always and never captured under penalties.

Firstly emphasis should be given on utilizing public transport or carpooling. Congestion tax should be levied on highly dense areas of the city. Parking should be chargeable no matter where it is done. No need of exchanging money at a lot, just take a picture of the cars plates and have it billed (also for tolls). Give private companies to build and mange multi level lots for both private and government vehicles.

Use of BEST depot should be explored. Say daily commuter working at fort can take his/her vehicle to coloba depot for parking which are empty during day time. BEST should run point to point buses every 10 min to take commuter from depot to fort. Parking charges for depot should be lower than in fort area so that people are induced to use this facility.

Vehicle is personal property and road is public and roads are meant for transportation and not for parking. I don't see any good reason why government should provide 'public space' to very few car owners at the cost of others. It completely violates the principle of equity unless charges are kept very high.
