The parking facility was set up by Nagpur Smart and Sustainable City Development Corporation Ltd ( NSSCDCL ) at a cost of around Rs5 crore in response to long standing complaints about congestion and lack of parking space in the market area. The automated system can accommodate up to 240 two-wheelers and 22 four-wheelers. A trained operator was appointed to manage the advanced parking system.
