The BMC mentioned a parking app yet again in its  budget for the fifth year in a row this year, but the deadline for the app to go live is nowhere in sight. The BMC has been planning to streamline parking woes through the app. It was a part of the Parking Authority, which was first mentioned in the Development Plan 2034. The budget speech says that through this app, citizens will be able to book vehicle slots in advance. Also, they can pay online as per their convenience. To achieve the necessary infrastructure for this, the process of inviting tenders is in progress.

Last year, during the 2023-24 budget, the Commissioner said that all 32 public parking lots (PPL), off-street parking and 91 on-street parking places will be regulated resulting in better service for citizens. The BMC issued a press note on March 3, 2023, on the various benefits of digital parking management and P Velarasu, additional municipal commissioner, said that the project was in the pre-tendering stage. But, the BMC hasn’t floated a tender in this regard in the past 10 months.
