Mumbai: Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) is representing the parking app to track your car and to book a parking space in Mumbai. In the video of Budget 2025 posted on X (formerly Twitter) shared details about the App.

The civic body said, “Parking app to set up for booking vehicle slots in advance and online payment.”

How parking app will work?

Parking app can help Mumbaikars take the slot of parking space and track it online. In the budget for 2025-26, BMC has mentioned multiple city developments. Apart from the parking app, BMC also showed the multilevel parking structure in a video on X.

Top 4 Advantages of the Parking App

Optimised parking: Using a parking app on your phone will help you track your vehicle and park more efficiently, and assist you in booking slots from your home.

Reduced traffic: Since most cars are parked on the road and take up space, the parking app will assist in reducing traffic in the city and make your daily journey easier.

Time management: As the parking app is accessible via phone, you may schedule your car service from wherever you are in the city, and it offers an authorized guarantee.

Safety and Independent Parking Space: Because you have reserved a spot, the parking app grants you an independent parking space, making you the only person using the designated parking spot. It also offers the significant benefit of increased vehicle safety while parking and in-system parking.

The civic body also posted on X about the Multilevel Robotic Car Parking in Mumbai, mentioning: ”Work orders have been issued for 194 capacity multilevel Car parking near Apsara Pen Shop, Flora Fountain (Hutatma Chowk) in A Ward.

Thane: Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde on Wednesday said the Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority (MHADA) will construct eight lakh houses across the state in the next five years.

Shinde, minister for Housing & Urban Development, made the announcement at a lottery for 2,147 houses and 117 plots in the Konkan division.

The people’s trust in MHADA was increasing due to its transparent lottery system, he said, noting that more than 31,000 persons applied for 2,147 houses in the present lottery.

Shinde also stressed the importance of cluster development projects, calling them an effort to build well-planned cities within existing urban areas.

On February 9, Bhoomi Poojan or groundbreaking ceremony of several cluster projects will take place in Thane, he said.

The construction quality of MHADA houses has significantly improved over the years, Shinde noted.

The state’s new housing policy will include provisions for textile mill workers and Mumbai’s famous `dabbawalas’ (tiffin carriers), ensuring that they have access to affordable housing, Shinde said.
