Mysore/Mysuru: After successfully clearing the once congested Mahatma Gandhi Road in Mysuru City of traffic snarls caused by haphazardly parked vegetable-laden vehicles, wandering vendors, roadside vegetable sales, foraging cattle and stray dogs, City Police Commissioner has now designated it as a no-parking zone for all types of vehicles, near vegetable market.

This notification was issued last evening by Police Commissioner Ramesh Banoth banning parking from the Manasa Road Junction to Underbridge on M.G. Road, both north and south sides. No vehicle will be allowed to park on this stretch.

The M.G. Road is one of the major roads coming under the jurisdiction of Siddharthanagar Traffic Police Station which serves as a vital link to various key locations such as the Zoo, Karanji Lake, Lalitha Mahal Palace and more.

Additionally, this road provides access to government offices, hospitals, prominent hotels, commercial buildings and residential areas.

The parking ban will facilitate the smooth movement of ambulances, vegetable transport vehicles and other public transport on both sides of the M.G. Road, ensuring efficient connectivity across the city, the notification stated.
