The Mumbai Parking Authority (MPA) has decided to set up no parking zones in a 100 m radius around malls. The no parking zones will be functional this week and will be set up in phases. The no parking rule will also apply to auto-rickshaws and taxis.
13 malls in the city will allow private vehicle owners to use the mall parking lots instead of parking on the road. Vehicles can be parked in mall parking lots during the day on weekdays and at night throughout the week. These include Palladium in Lower Parel, Star Mall in Dadar, K Star Mall in Chembur, Atria Mall in Worli, CR2 in Nariman Point, Oberoi Mall in Goregaon, R City Mall in Ghatkopar, among others.
Malls have been instructed to keep the parking fees reasonable, while those flouting the new rule will be fined Rs. 10,000.
