EPCA presents parking plan for National Capital

The pricing for residential parking should be determined jointly by the local agency and RWA or shopkeepers association but it must be based on the principle of charging differential and higher rates for additional cars. This was recommended by Environment Pollution (Prevention and Control) Authority (EPCA) to the apex court for the parking policy in the city on Friday. The panel also recommended that the local parking plan must ensure there is a provision for movement of emergency vehicles and green areas, parks and footpaths should not be allowed for parking.
