New Delhi, Sep 3 (PTI) The Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) has invited e-tenders for 99 surface parking sites across all zones on a monthly licence fee basis, in a bid to ease traffic woes in the national capital, an official statement said on Tuesday.
Fifteen new parking sites have been identified for the first phase of the project, it added.
These parking lots are located in the Bawana industrial area, Narela industrial area, Wazirpur, Ashok Vihar, Shakti Nagar, Keshav Puram, Civil Lines, Azadpur Mandi, Janakpuri East metro station, Krishna Park Extension, Red Fort, the Hardyal library and Jia Sarai near the IIT gate.
