Parking in Connaught Place
Parking at Connaught Place is a big problem with so many vehicles lined up for parking space. However, there is an underground parking in place but with the increasing number of vehicles in the city, it has become very difficult for the authorities to manage the traffic. With the new plan of NDMC, things are expected to get better and also the running of Delhi Metro to Connaught Place has lessened the traffic to a great extent. Parking here is very expensive which means you will have to spend a few bucks to park your vehicles. Palika parking is a good option at present which is under plans of renovation which would have multi-level parking space. At the moment it is the only place where you can have your vehicles parked with a few other empty spots in and around CP.
