Unused bits of land in overcrowded neighbourhoods may be turned into multi-storey car parks after MP Basma Mubarak’s plan to ease parking shortages passed through the Council of Representatives yesterday without pushback.

The plan, which aims to lessen the growing struggle for parking in packed areas, was put forward by MP Mubarak and seeks to turn little-used spaces into working parking answers.

A note showed that rising car ownership has led to many clashes between neighbours, with parking rows becoming a common problem for local councils.

These little-used plots, often seen as wasted ground, may become car parks, easing the load on packed streets and bringing order to neighbourhoods that have long dealt with parking troubles.

Mubarak had support from fellow MPs Abdulhakeem Alshano, Ali Saqer, Jameel Mulla Hasan, and Ahmed Alsalloom, who helped to push the plan through.
