Ho Chi MinhCity (VNA) – Ho Chi Minh 🌠City People’s Committee has asked theMinistry of Construct for a guideline to implement a pilot on multi-storey parking structures in tꦜhe city.
According tothe committee, the city’s parking network has not been given proper investment asplanned. It now has about 900 ha for parking areas, accounting for just 20% of the total areas planned. Previously,the city planned to build four underground parking lots in thecity’s centre. However, by now, none of the projects have been implemented. The city’sauthorities are now managing more than 850,000 cars and over 7.8 millionmotorbikes, excluding those registered in other localities but still run on thecity’s roads. They said the implementation oftemporary fabricated multi-storey parking structures is very necessary to partlymeet the needs of people and businesses as well as help reducetraffic congestion and enhance traffic order and safety. The fabricated parking structures can be builton public land, parks, or construction sites of pending projects. They have advantages for requiring only about three months to install, occupying about 49 sq.m for 16-21cars, even the nine-seat ones, and bear low costs compared to undergroundparking spaces, according to the city’s Transport Department. And they can be easily and quickly installed, or dismantledand relocated when needed./.
