Projects in Pune by Kumar Properties have Excellent Parking Facilities

Election time is the time to talk about infrastructure and civic amenities or the lack of them; keeping to the mood of the season, let us turn our heads towards the eyesore of Pune. If Pune is the centre of ridicule for one thing it is the state of our roads. But for the common Punekar the state of the roads is a lesser problem as compared to the well built roads which are blocked and unusable.

Our roads have turned into vehicle showrooms, with commercially parked tempos, proudly parked cars and artistically parked two wheelers. These standard roadside fixtures occupy 25% of our roads on each side and more than half the space at turnings. Even after repeated though half-hearted road decongestion drives by our police force the parking woes seem never to disappear.

Pune's public transport is a nightmare to say the least, any bus or local train running on time is an oddity, a sight to be photographed and stored! This is one reason that our city has turned into one which has as many vehicles in a household as members in it. Travelling may be made easy because of this but the number of vehicles on the roads is increasingly exponentially every year.

Could it be possible that we are hacking away at a problem in its periphery and not in its root? The cause of these large congestion due to hordes of parked vehicles perhaps is not lack of civic sense but a genuine lack of parking space. Most buildings either do not have a dedicated parking lot or have parking lots inconvenient to use. Their exits blocked or built at an angle that they get flooded in the smallest of drizzles; or the classic case of the builder selling away of the parking space for commercial premise holders or shops.

A solution for this has as always come from the idealistic builders of Pune, Kumar Properties. Kumar Surabhi, their 2 and 3 bedroom apartments in Pune at Swargate, has been built with as much care to amenities and civic facilities as to the wonderfully designed homes. Maybe more initiatives like these and we would one day be rid of congested roads.
