7 parking lots to come up in congested areas

NOIDA: Several attempts were made by the authority to curb the growing unauthorized parking all across the city, but everything went into vain. Finally to solve this problem Noida Authority has decided to provide some designated spots for parking at some of the most congested junction of the city. They have also invited bids for the construction of proper parking lots.

Authorities have identified 7 important spots where the construction work for parking will begin shortly. These places are Sector 6, near the Noida Authority office, Sector 2 industrial area, Sector 28 market, Sector 30 Ambedkar hospital, Sector 62, Sector 27 near Vinayak Hospital and Sector 110 market.

By March 8 the tenders will be finalized. The proposal for new parking lots will be implemented jointly by Noida Authority and Traffic Police under the Authority’s new parking policy. Under the new policy strict measures will be taken against unauthorized parking.

“As per the new policy implemented in October last year, a survey was conducted to identify those areas that witness heavy vehicular movement and remain congested through the day. Designated parking spots in these areas will also help in curbing unauthorized parking and in regulating traffic movement,” said a senior Noida Authority official.

“Besides, under the new policy, the Authority has also formulated stricter norms for implementing checks against unauthorized parking and for auctioning of parking spaces. As there is shortage of space, the new policy focuses on traffic management and on ensuring that residents do not encroach upon public spaces. The Authority and the traffic department will conduct regular drives against unauthorized parking and all offenders will be penalized,” he said.
