"There is a lot of parking problem in the old city. Especially in areas like Sadar Bazar where a footfall of people is very high. In view of this, the government had given approval to build multilevel parking near Sadar Bazar," Singla said.
He informed that the basement work is almost complete of the project. Construction work that was disrupted due to Corona epidemic is now being done at a rapid pace.
"The construction company has given time to complete the project in 24 months. 404 vehicles can be parked in this parking lot costing 39.93 crores, which includes 238 four wheelers (cars) and 166 two wheelers," the MLA asserted.
Singla said that this parking will be of six floors. Out of which there will be 3 basements. The remaining three floors will have shops on the ground and first floor, the second, third, fourth and fifth floors will be used as parking, while the sixth floor will have a grand banquet hall which will be used for multipurpose along with parking".
Meanwhile, the Municipal Corporation of Gurugram (MCG) officials said that the state government has framed a parking policy to stop unauthorised parking on roads.
Located within a radius of a kilometre of each other, Sadar Bazar and Sohna Chowk 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 these 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," said a MCG Official.
