LUCKNOW: Chowk, one of the most congested areas of the city, will get some relief from daily traffic snarls as the multilevel parking-cum-amphitheatre at Kanchan market opened for the public on Thursday. Haphazard parking of vehicles on the roadsides is one of the main reasons for traffic jams in Chowk.Built by Lucknow Development Authority , the 6,000 sq mt multilevel parking lot has capacity for 450 cars and 150 two-wheelers. It will help in easing out traffic around Phool Mandi, Lohia Park, Kanchan Market and Asifi Masjid in Chowk . While Rs 25 will be charged for four-wheelers for four hours, two-wheeler riders will have to pay Rs15 for the same period.An amphitheatre with capacity for 2,000 people has been built on the roof of the parking. It will be used for social and cultural events.Backdrop view of Bada Imambada is the major attraction of the amphitheatre. LDA will float tenders to hire a private contractor to run the amphitheatre.
