Buildings with basements in Hoan Kiem district are being told to allow people working or living there to park their vehicles in the basements.

The capital city would not allow buildings to use the basements for other purposes while people were being forced to park their vehicles on pavements around the buildings, Vice Chairman of the Hanoi People's Committee Nguyen Quoc Hung said at a recent meeting with the district authority.

The city transport department and the traffic police were asked to demarcate several parking lots on the pavements of Ba Trieu, Phan Boi Chau and 19/12 streets, because these pavements were more than 3.5m in width, he said.
