Reps panel seeks FCTA park-pay review

Recall that the FCTA reintroduced the park and pay policy in August 2023 after signing an agreement with two concessionaires.

The policy is to decongest the city and make motoring in the nation’s city a pleasant experience.

The policy was suspended in April 2014 after a high court judgment stopped the FCTA from collecting fees from residents for on-and-off-street parking within the metropolis. The court ruled that the policy was not supported by law.

Speaking on the issue at the interactive session, the Chairman of the Committee, Muktar Betara, asked for justification for the reintroduction of the scheme and how remittances were made to the accounts of FCTA.

Responding, Elechi said the policy was applicable only to designated areas which served as parking zones.
