They prefer to park vehicles on the road risking police action; officials may reconsider rates
EXPRESS NEWS SERVICE @Coimbatore

The paid parking facility, which was opened by the Coimbatore City Municipal Corporation (CCMC) on Sunday in front of the Coimbatore Medical College Hospital (CMCH) on the Valankulam lake bund, has found very few users. Staff handling the facility said less than 20 motorists used it in the last three days.

Motorists said the charges are high and vehicles continue to be on the road from Lanka Corner up to Classic Tower junction. Also, they slammed the CCMC, CMCH and police, saying the parking facility is seen as a means to generate income rather than serving people.
