Policy for managing burgeoning vehicles in Delhi

Delhi has more than 6.8 million vehicles registered in Delhi, not including vehicles registered in neighbouring states but plying in Delhi. Total number of vehicles is more than the number of combined vehicles in other metros.

Under the directions of High Court, Delhi Government had formed a Committee headed by the Chief Secretary. It has made several recommendations including:

  • · A Transport policy which discourages the use of personal vehicles and promotes public transport, including construction of Bus Rapid Transit Corridors.
  • · Policy of parking charges to factor in real-estate cost of land.
  • · Congestion Charges on private vehicles, especially in busy markets.
  • · For better management of parking sites, identify them through GPS.
  • · Introduction of parking meters and internet-enabled parking systems.

A conference has been planned on August 17 at CSE to discuss the policy proposals.
