Tourists in Mussoorie, from New Year will have shuttle-service and satellite parking aimed to reduce town’s chronic traffic congestion.
This will mark the establishment of Uttarakhand’s first satellite parking systems at Hathipaon and Kincraig. The initiative, led by Dehradun District Administration, promises smoother travel for both visitors and residents, according to Dehradun’s District Magistrate Savin Bansal. He said that the shuttle-service will feature vehicles in two categories. Larger options such as S.U.V.s – Innovas, Scorpios and others will operate alongside sedans like Swift Dzire, Maruti Ciaz, Honda City and Hyundai Aura. These shuttles will run between Kincraig parking and Library Chowk, Kincraig parking and Picture Palace, Hathipaon and Library Chowk and Hathipaon Bend to Picture Palace-Mall Road.
Dehradun’s District Magistrate Savin underlined that after years of under-utilisation, Kincraig Parking is being revived and integrated into this new system, while Hathipaon will host a new parking facility. Following a tender process, the Kincraig Taxi Association was chosen by Mussoorie Municipal Council to manage the shuttle services.
Savin Bansal further said that the administration took decision to launch these facilities after repeated public appeals to address the growing traffic problem in Mussoorie and get them respite from the rampant jams.
