The Panvel Municipal Corporation has approved a ₹13.20 crore project to build a multi-level mechanised parking facility near Lifeline Hospital in the old city area of Panvel. This move aims to alleviate traffic congestion caused by narrow roads, increasing vehicle numbers, and roadside parking. The proposed facility, on Plot No. 184/1 A Part, will accommodate 168 vehicles - 72 cars and 96 two-wheelers.
The strategic location near the bus stand and main market area prompted the civic body to increase the parking capacity in the area. The project, expected to cost over Rs 13.20 crore, will utilize vertical rotary parking systems and tower parking to maximize the available space. The facility is projected to help discourage roadside parking, freeing up road space and reducing congestion during peak hours, particularly during festivals and peak shopping seasons.
