Nagpur: Nagpur Municipal Corporation (NMC) is creating a smart parking bay at Central Bazar Road stretch from Hotel Tuli International to Dr Panjabrao Deshmukh Krishi Vidyapeeth Hostel Square. This may be the first smart parking with sensors and boom barriers for designated parking of four-wheelers..
It may be mentioned that several trees are planted along road sides to strengthen green cover. The Unity Infrastructure has started cement road construction while Larsen and Tubro is providing smart network on the road. Though pace of construction is painfully slow, the NMC has promised a much better facility, once the project is completed.
Presently, the road is buzzing with two-wheelers and four wheelers. The footpath is very wide and therefore, all the vehicles parked by the road side leaving less space for vehicular traffic and commuters.
NMC Smart Parking Solution
NMC can update all the available parking spaces in the city on NMCzoom application.
Citizens / societies can also upload their parking spaces in any area for parking in the central database.
Citizens looking for parking space can search for parking space in a particular area and can RENT it online on
NMCzoom application. ( Not Yet release )
This willl encourage everybody with spare parking space to upload the same on NMCzoom, thereby creating more parking inventory.
Municipal Commissioner has suggested parking of four-wheelers on footpath without cutting any tree. This will provide more space to the commuters on Central Bazar Road, and safe parking of four-wheelers without creating obstruction to the smooth flow of traffic. The parking will be connected with boom barriers and smart sensors.
The 1.5 meter wide footpath will be marked after parking of four-wheelers to ensure space for pedestrians. The NMC is also planning a cycle track on the road stretch, Gupta added. He said, almost 87 parking bays will be created and 86 sensors will be installed on the road. This will be the first smart parking bay on pilot basis. During cement road construction, the road will be up by 10 inch and will align with the footpath. Therefore, it is easy to transform footpath as parking bay, he added.
