PARKING SITUATION IN YOUR CITY: To be filled only by car users in Pune and Mumbai

Page One

Increase in purchasing power has resulted in an exponential growth in demand for, and the use of LCVs & Two-wheelers. This growth has caused an equal demand for parking spaces. Close to 8,00,000 (8 lac) cars are sold in India every year, growing at an average of 10% p.a. Each year 50,00,000 (50 lac) two-wheelers are being added at an astounding 15%. About 19,49,776 (19.5 lac appprox.) cars were sold in 2009-10, a 25.6% growth over last year sales and 93,71,231 (94 lac approx.) two-wheelers were sold in 2009-10, a 26% growth over last year sales. Though the growth reflects the growing wealth of Indians, both material and monetary, cities are rapidly losing comfortable space in which to move about. What's more, the problem has now shifted into Tier II and Tier III towns where infrastructure development is still weak.
