Need of Parking Plazas!
|
The roads in most commercial areas of our cities are constantly clogged as there is no adequate parking arrangement, and therefore cars are parked on the roads, blocking lanes and causing traffic jams. It is shocking that so far, no city government has come up with a serious, viable plan to solve this problem. One solution, which has been successfully employed in large cities across the world, is the construction of parking plazas at strategic commercial locations. The city government can either outsource their construction and maintenance, or build them itself. Parking spots would be equipped with digital metres, which would charge by the hour. Thus these plazas, while reducing the chaos on the roads, will end up generating a handsome amount for the city’s exchequer. One hopes that the city managers and planners in Pakistan are alive to this possibility, because we need these plazas urgently! http://blinddeafdumb.blogspot.com Related Articles |

My above written paragraph was published in letters to the editor of Daily Times on 3rd January 2009.
Thats absolutly right that The roads in most commercial areas of our cities are constantly clogged as there is no adequate parking arrangement, and therefore cars are parked on the roads, blocking lanes and causing traffic jams.
Parking plazas are requirement of the time, but there are some more options to work on.
To construct Parking plazas, is really a huge investment and occopying a commercial n expensive place for parking.
Parking plaza cannot pay back as a commercial plazas pays.
so, batter to go for second option…………..
Parking lifts, these lifts are hydraulicaly operated, steel fabricated structure, movable from one place to an other, two or three stages lifts are available.
Double stage lifts can be installed in basement parking, that means we can make our parking double with a little investment.
These lifts can be installed beside the roads, that will not only increase the parking capacity but make the road good looking.
leave a good impect of a well disiplened nation.
there is much more than that…………………..
M/S ECMEX ENGINEERING WORKS, situated at Gujranwala has developed that system and wish local govt. consider that issue and take a good step to instal these lifts in crouded areas to solve parking problem.
