City to have multi-level parking lots soon

Hyderabad: In the backdrop of growing traffic congestion and shortage of parking spaces, Mayor Bonthu Rammohan has proposed to set-up multi-level parking lots and ultra-modern parking facilities in GHMC limits in near future.An App is also being developed for the citizens to find a parking space in the nearby area.

Mayor held a meeting with officials from a Finnish company in this regard. The mayor reminded that there are around 40 lakh vehicles in the city and the parking spaces were insufficient and poorly organised. To solve this, a proposal has been mooted with a European firm for the construction of parking lots at major commercial areas such as Shilparamam, Necklace Road and Abids.

Representatives from Finland, GHMC Chief Engineer Suresh and Additional Commissioners Shiva Kumar Naidu and Surender Mohan were present at the meeting.
