Siliguri, 01st March: Starting Friday, a one-way route will be introduced to solve the parking-related problem in Khudiram Pally, Sisir Bhaduri Sarani, and Rajnibagan area.
In the business-centric areas under SMC’s Ward No. 11, illegal car parking has become a major problem that creates hindrance in daily commutes.
A meeting was called on Monday in this regard, which was attended by Ward Coordinators Manjushree Paul, Nantu Paul, BCDA secretary Vijay Gupta and local traders. Discussions were held regarding the appointment of security guards from Friday.
Reportedly, a parking facility has been constructed for around 350 cars. A certain amount will also be charged for availing of the services. Stickers will be affixed on the motorcycle that will be parked in the new parking space. Only the shop owners and the working staff will be allowed to use the parking facility. Police action will be taken if security guards are harassed in any way.
A committee was also formed to provide strict surveillance in this concern. Siliguri IC and the traffic department officials will be present at the inauguration ceremony on Friday.
