Now Pimpri Chinchwad residents can reserve parking space on WhatsApp
Currently operational at 10 key locations in the city, the system allows real-time booking under the user's name for a specific time slot. If the vehicle isn't parked within the reserved time, the slot is automatically released and made available to others. Users receive instant notifications, making the process transparent and time-efficient, officials said.
The system offers seamless access to booking status, real-time availability, and smart alerts—all through WhatsApp, officials said.
According to joint city engineer for urban mobility Bapu Gaikwad, the service will not only ease parking hassles for citizens but also enhance overall traffic management in Pimpri Chinchwad.
The standing committee meeting was held at the Late Mayor Madhukar Pawale Hall at the Main Administrative Building in Pimpri. It was chaired by Shekhar Singh, and attended by additional commissioners Pradip Jambhale Patil, Vijaykumar Khorate, Trupti Sandbhor and key department heads among others.
