A parking lot with 140 places was built on Ion Creangă St in Chisinau, near the Dendrariu Park. The parking lot next year will be outfitted with an access control system, IPN reports.

The Chisinau City Hall said the works on the parking lot started in 2021, following the building of the water supply and sewerage system, as part of the project to extensively repair Ion Creangă St, and covered an area of 4,000 square meters.

Initially, the lot was temporarily covered with gravel so that the visitors of the park could use it. This year, pedestrian areas near the parking lot and three access ways for vehicles were built there. The lighting system was set up, the paving was placed and road signs were fixed.

In the immediate period, the municipality aims to implement a project to put up street parking lots in the historical center of Chisinau. Four lots were put up for a tender contest and two of them were already assigned. The other two lots are at the bids assessment stage.

As many as 6,322 parking places are to be set up as part of this project to the value of 135 million lei.
