Calculator
How many bays does your Goa project need?
Pick the building type, enter the quantity the rule is based on. Computed from the verified rows above; visitor loading is added and shown separately.
Indicative. The sanctioning authority applies rounding, area-class, TOD and other adjustments a summary cannot capture.
Mechanical parking
Permitted with conditions in Goa
What the regulation says
The regulations refer to mechanical access but have no clause on stack, puzzle or automated parking. Stilted floors at any level should be accessible by “adequate ramps and/or mechanical device” (Reg. 2(126)(a)(ii)). For basements, a car lift may be provided where a ramp is not feasible (Reg. 10(f)).
