(Baonghean) -In recent years, with the rapid growth of private cars in Vinh City, the need for parking spaces along the streets has become urgent. Faced with this reality, the Provincial People's Committee has a policy to allow Vinh City to mark parking spots on some streets to meet the parking needs of the people.

Since 2014, Vinh city has started to deploy marking of car parking spots on some inner-city roads. Up to now, there are 9 roads with marking of car parking spots on the road including: Quang Trung, Tran Phu, Truong Thi, Le Duan, Nguyen Thi Minh Khai, Nguyen Van Cu, Le Hong Phong, Ho Tung Mau and Phan Dang Luu. Since the parking spots have been installed, the situation of parking on the sidewalk has been limited as before.

Mr. Nguyen Quang Son - security guard of a shoe store on Nguyen Thi Minh Khai street shared: "The store sells women's fashion shoes, attracting a lot of customers to visit and shop every day. Before, when there was no parking space on the street, customers parked their cars in a messy way, unsafe, difficult to control. Now there is a place that allows motorbikes to park on a part of the sidewalk and car parking spaces are drawn on the street, very convenient for customers as well as the store's business. That also helps us easily arrange parking, manage cars, strictly control the number of cars coming in and out, avoiding theft. Cars are parked in a straight line, have convenient access, and traffic is more secure."

Mr. Le Duc Tue in Nghi Phu commune said: I often buy goods on Quang Trung, Nguyen Van Cu, and Le Hong Phong streets. Before, when there were no car parking lines on the streets, every time I went to these streets to buy goods, I struggled to find a parking space on the sidewalk. Especially during rush hour, moving through traffic intersections was very difficult, finding a parking space was even more difficult, very inconvenient. In recent years, the city has painted lines to reserve parking spaces on these streets, making it easier for people with cars to participate in traffic when entering the inner city.

Faced with the increasing number of vehicles in the area, while the traffic system in Vinh city was mainly invested and built in advance, the solution of guiding vehicles to stop and park according to the lines on the road has helped limit the situation of chaotic parking, insecurity for vehicle owners and affecting the urban beauty.

Mr. Tran Trung Quan - Urban Management Department of Vinh City People's Committee discussed: Through implementation on 9 inner-city routes, this solution has brought about feasible results. On routes with lines for cars to park and stop in straight lines, contributing to the neatness of the urban area, demonstrating civilized urban lifestyle, reducing traffic congestion. Currently, the city is continuing to survey other routes to gradually deploy synchronous parking lines in the inner city.
