Illegal parking fine hiked in Mumbai, but 19 public lots remain unused

August 30, 2019

In parking space-starved Mumbai, where on the one hand the civic body is charging fine up to ₹23,000 for unauthorised parking, its 19 amenity parking lots, with a capacity of 1,502 vehicles, are lying vacant since 2017, with the space being used for private parking or even as dumpyards for towed vehicles.

Reason? Despite multiple attempts to contract maintenance of these parking lots, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has failed to get bidders.
