The Municipal Corporation of  Gurugram (MCG) has identified four locations for constructing multilevel parking lots including Kaman Sarai, Kamla Nehru Market, Sikanderpur village and Old Veterinary Hospital at Sadar Bazaar.

The civic body has also floated e-tenders for building four multi-level parking lots to decongest these areas. MCG officials said that the state government has framed a parking policy to stop unauthorised parking on roads.

Located within a radius of a kilometer of each other, Sadar Bazaar and Kamani Sarai are among the city’s most congested commercial and residential spaces. Despite housing more than 1,100 shops and inviting a daily footfall of more than 10,000 people, Sadar Bazar has no designated parking space.

“These parking lots will surely help to decongest parking issues at multiple locations in the city. It will also help to curb unauthorised parking on the city roads. Multilevel parking space will also provide a better facility to the visitor. Also, the MCG will generate revenue via shops which will run inside the parking lots,” an MCG Official said.

In March, the MCG officials had looked at sites near Sadar Bazaar for constructing multilevel parking, but owing to space constraints there, they had to shift their plan to Kaman Sarai, which is a bit further from Sadar Bazaar.

Sikanderpur Ghosi is situated near the Delhi-Gurugram border and the Golf Course Road and is also connected by the Yellow Line of the Delhi Metro. It is home to several paying guest accommodations and guesthouses.

Kamla Nehru Market, too, is a heavily congested market and residential area and its arterial roads are heavily encroached upon by fruit and vegetable vendors.

Despite being in the MCG’s scheme of things since the civic body’s commenced in 2009, multiple proposals for adopting multilevel parking at Kaman Sarai, Rajiv Chowk, Sadar Bazaar, Huda City Centre Metro station, and DLF Phase 3 failed to get a final nod from the urban local bodies department.
