The Lagos State government has announced the launch of its on-street parking scheme, set to begin in October.
The scheme will introduce hourly charges for cars parked on designated streets.
A notice from the Lagos State Parking Authority (LASPA), dated July 19 and signed by Head of Operations Ayokunle Akinrimisi, was addressed to the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN) branch chairman.
The notice also mentioned that measures will be taken against indiscriminately parked cars.
The notice stated, “I am directed to inform your revered organization that the Lagos State Parking Authority (LASPA) will be commencing its on-street parking scheme at designated strets within the Lagos State metropolis.”
It further stated, “Vehicles parked on designated streets by the church and its members will be charged hourly, and indiscriminately parked vehicles will be enforced upon accordingly.”
LASPA emphasized that compliance with the directive is expected from law-abiding organizations.
However, the notice did not specify the exact fee to be charged.
