CCTV cameras, pay-parking in Margao soon
Margao: The Margao Municipal Council (MMC) will install CCTV cameras at several locations and introduce pay-parking areas to tackle traffic congestion. MMC chairperson Damodar Shirodkar said a committee constituted under the chief officer identified 15-16 locations for the installation of CCTV cameras in congested areas. It met with the RTO, police, and MMC officials to finalise the spots.
The chairperson also said that the proposed hydraulic pay-parking system will materialise soon. The project is being implemented through the Goa State Urban Development Agency, which has already invited expressions of interest. However, the progress of the project is shrouded in secrecy.
Opposition councillors, meanwhile, have slammed the MMC’s “announcement politics”. Earlier pay-parking proposals for Margao Square, Fatima Convent, and Isidore Baptista Road never got off the ground, they said.
