LAHORE - The parking systems across the city will be upgraded to an automated parking system, Pakistan Today learnt on Thursday.
Organising the parking system along modern lines, 64 sites would be upgraded by the City District Government Lahore (CDGL).
A Le Park official told Pakistan Today that according to a recent survey, there were over 1.8 million vehicles in the city and the parking spaces were not enough to accommodate them.
FasiudDin, a human resource manager at Le Park said work on 30 of 64 identified sites was already underway.
The new parking system would include hand terminals and barriers to ensure smooth and safe parking, he said, adding that the parking fee would remain unchanged.
He said the Punjab government had paid Rs 10 million for this project.
The news was welcomed by commuters across the city.
Ali, a frequent traveller of the city, said parking was among the biggest concerns for commuters. “This is a wonderful initiative by the government,” he added.
Ahsan Raza, another commuter, said if such a system was properly implemented, it would solve a lot of parking problems and traffic congestion in the city.
Usman Khalid, a driver, said, “Liberty market parking system is a good example of why such an initiative is urgently needed. I am not satisfied with how everything is working manually. This new system can bring a lot of positive changes if it is done without any corruption.”
