Mumbai's roads aren't available for free. That's the message the civic body is sending out with its new pay-and-park policy. You will now have to shell out anywhere between Rs 20 to Rs 60 per hour to park your vehicle along the side of a road in the city.

As of now, the Mumbai traffic police have identified 300 spots where the new policy will be implemented, and BMC chief Ajoy Mehta has instructed ward officials to start it on priority.
