After setting up on-street parking on five stretches in the city, the Mumbai Parking Authority (MPA) is trying to decongest roads leading to malls by prohibiting parking within a 100-m radius of them. They have roped in 13 malls across the city to allow private vehicle owners to use the mall parking lots, instead of parking on the road.

The Mumbai Traffic Police have issued a notification declaring the no-parking zones while the system, being implemented in phases, will be functional this week.
