These new parking sites will have the capacity to accommodate 2,890 cars and 1,493 two-wheelers, it said.
The civic body said, “These 99 parking lots also include two clusters one in Shastri Nagar and other one in Daryaganj. The tender period of most of the parking sites, which were in operation, is over, and now new tender is being invited through the above tender.”
The MCD said the allotment of parking sites would be for a period of three years which is further extendable for two years on mutual agreement. The slips mentioning parking fee will be issued to commuters through electronic hand held devices.
“The last date for submission of bids is 23rd September. The MCD is operating over 400 parking sites in the capital,” it added.
