PMC to build multi-level parking near Yerawada Metro after Bombay High Court directions
Meant particularly for commuters travelling to work and senior citizens, the facility is expected to reduce illegal roadside parking.
IllustrationNear Yerawada Metro Station, the Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) is to build a multi-level parking facility on an open plot reserved for the Pune Mahanagar Parivahan Mahamandal Limited (PMPML).
The PMC has decided on the project and prepared a layout plan to turn the plot into a dedicated parking facility.
The decision follows directions from the Bombay High Court, which asked Maha Metro to take necessary steps to address congestion and parking issues around metro stations. It comes after years of complaints and follow-up by citizens.
The facility will take two-wheelers, three-wheelers and four-wheelers. It is meant particularly for commuters travelling to work and senior citizens who now find it hard to reach the station.
The project is also expected to reduce illegal roadside parking, ease traffic congestion and improve pedestrian movement around the station.
Work on the facility is expected to begin soon.
