New Delhi, November 13 (H.S.): Delhi Lieutenant Governor Taranjit Singh Sandhu on Friday inaugurated a multi-level parking facility developed by the Delhi Development Authority (DDA) at Bhikaji Cama Place. Built at a cost of Rs 40 crore, the facility can accommodate 432 cars and 193 two-wheelers. Equipped with modern amenities, the parking complex aims to ease roadside congestion in the busy commercial hub.
Addressing the inauguration ceremony, the Lieutenant Governor expressed satisfaction over the DDA's initiative and appreciated its efforts. He said that several more such parking facilities were needed across Delhi. He noted that the initiative would not only improve traffic movement but also help address parking shortages and congestion. Describing it as a reflection of modern urban planning, he said such infrastructure would play an important role in the development of a Viksit Bharat.
Congratulating the DDA, Sandhu urged the authority and other parking agencies to develop similar facilities at several more locations across the national capital. He also directed DDA officials to identify suitable sites in congested markets and institutional areas for the development of additional multi-level parking complexes.
New Delhi MP Bansuri Swaraj, R.K. Puram MLA Anil Kumar Sharma and other officials were also present on the occasion.
