The Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) has invited e-tenders for RFID-based parking systems at 28 parking sites across nine clusters in the city.
The selected agency will look after operations, management, and collection of parking charges through FASTag on a monthly license fee basis. The allotment of parking sites would be for a period of three years which is further extendable for two years on mutual agreement, as per a communiqué issued by the civic body on Tuesday.
The automated parking system will enable commuters the ease of paying parking fees as the parking fees will be automatically deducted through the RFID-based FASTag used for toll tax collections, it said.
