My office and Jawatankuasa Penduduk Zone 3 hosted a town hall session in MPSJ last week to gather feedback from residents and business owners on the new parking system in Taipan, USJ 10.
The trial period for the hourly parking in Taipan will end in March 2010 and MPSJ will then review the effectiveness of this new system. This new hourly parking will encourage business owners and their employees to park their cars in the private car park owned by Corporate Parking (Corporate Parking agreed to match their season parking stickers from RM105 to RM80 a month ie. MPSJ’s rate).
This change has increased the number of season parkers in Corporate Parking from 350 to 500 users. This simply means at every hour there are at least 150 public parking bays freed up all around Taipan for customers and residents to use. Read the news report on this from The Star “Parking limit proves effective“.
