NMMC takes measures to tackle parking Woes.

The Parking problem

Shree Rajesh Narvekar, the commissioner of the Navi Mumbai Municipal Corporation (NMMC), is leading strategic measures in an effort to solve the growing parking issues in Navi Mumbai. Shree Narvekar is establishing clear goals for the systematic creation of parking plots around the city through the regular review sessions.

A ground-breaking project is under ongoing in Sector 15 of CBD Belapur, where a 4-story parking structure spanning 4705 square meters is being built on plot no. 39. With 396 four-wheeler and 121 two-wheeler spaces planned, this facility should significantly alleviate the city’s parking shortage. Plans for parking lots are underway concurrently for Plot No. 72 (6900 sq.m.) in CBD Belapur and Sector 30 A, Vashi, close to Hotel Tunga (11300 sq.m.). Shree Narvekar highlights the accompanying advantages and necessary approvals and is an advocate for using public-private partnerships to develop these lots.

Feedback Infra Pvt. Ltd. is actively involved in the preparation of a thorough feasibility report for the establishment of public-private partnerships (PPPs). Shree Narvekar emphasizes the property’s dual use through PPP, serving as a parking lot and for commercial endeavours.

In a presentation, Shree Rajesh Narvekar emphasized that before creating vehicle bases, one should take into account the current traffic situation, the availability of construction, and parking techniques. He emphasized how parking on both sides of the road in crowded places contributes to traffic congestion. He also looked into the possibility of revenue-generating, minimally-invested-in municipal metro development through PPP. To evaluate possible annoyance to citizens, a comparison study of vehicle toll rates at different sites will be done.
