Delhi Lieutenant Governor Vinai Kumar Saxena on Tuesday inaugurated a five-storey automated multi-level car parking at the Nizamuddin area here, but said despite many such facilities, people park on roads, causing jams and accidents.
The parking facility, with a capacity to hold 86 cars, near the Lodhi Road Flyover has been built by the MCD at a cost of Rs 15.76 crore, officials said. Such parking facilities will not only benefit residents but will also address parking requirements of those visiting religious and tourist sites in and around the Nizamuddin area, Saxena said, according to an MCD statement.
He, however, said despite dedicating many such multi-level car parking lots to the people of the city, they park on roads, causing jams and accidents. In this automated multi-level puzzle car parking at Nizamuddin, a vehicle on a pallet on the ground floor will be taken to a designated spot in the building in a fast and smooth manner, the statement said, adding that the average retrieval time is estimated to be 150 seconds.
