AHMEDABAD: The civic body has determined to create automobile parking spaces within public gardens. The house requirement of 1,200 to 1,700 sq. metres for such parking spaces will probably be made to be had in municipal gardens with reference to primary roads.
The municipal corporation believes this will likely ease traffic congestion through providing a space for many who park their automobiles on the roadside.
The experiment will start with 32 parks and gardens of the city. Director, parks and gardens, AMC, Jignesh Patel, mentioned that during primary gardens, there are areas that lie mostly unused.
“In some puts we found such areas getting used as urinals and unload ground for hawkers. In other puts we found people had begun to throw rubbish and render where useless. We will revive such areas,” mentioned Patel.
He indicated that during gardens similar to Law Garden and Parimal Garden, up to 2,000 sq. metres of house will probably be to be had for parking.
“One idea is to introduce bicycle proportion for public at these areas,” Patel provides. But the civic body has assured that during historical parks similar to Victoria Garden they'll not meddle with current construction.
“The parking lot will probably be designed in such a approach that it does not devour into the prevailing garden house which is being used by guests. We assure this,” mentioned Patel.
Even as the municipal corporation is thinking of carving out automobile parking spaces from garden areas, it is price citing that there's not up to zero.7 sq. metre open house for every Amdavadi, which is just too little through any requirements. And a majority of open areas in the city are in the form of gardens
A CEPT find out about on inexperienced infrastructure highlights how in Town Planning (TP) schemes, inexperienced infrastructure must be around five% of overall TP scheme house, however studies of Ahmedabad’s TP scheme presentations that it is just 2% to three%. Approximately 40% of open areas in the city are in the West zone best.
