Description

Chennai's newly adopted parking policy marks a significant step toward sustainable urban mobility. By prioritizing the efficient use of limited street space, the policy discourages excessive private vehicle use and redirects parking revenue to enhance walking, cycling, and public transport infrastructure. Spearheaded by the Greater Chennai Corporation with support from ITDP India, the initiative aims to create safer, more accessible, and environmentally responsible streets, setting an example for cities across India.
