Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing regarding the problem I have been seeing for the
last
couple of days. I recently started to travel to work by bicycle but having some issues in the parking area near the Star House Building, which is quite the opposite. I used to commute by car, but
due to
the benefits of running

of transportation. Even though, my ongoing disease
such
as high blood pressure is
also
in control.
Hence
, I start to travel short distances through the cycle.
Moreover
,
along with
the benefits, I faced some drawbacks at the parking site.
Firstly
, it is really hard for me to find a
space
for my cycle because the parking
space
is in the common area and other people are
also
using it.
In addition
, the site is
also
dirty with garbage,
due to
fixed garbage bins which are located beside the parking
space
.
Similarly
, I humbly request you to change the policy from free parking
space
to chargeable, which will help to open a few spaces for the workers and shift the scrap boxes to a little far,
as a result
, the parking
space
will look neat and clean all the time. I hope you will consider
this
and revert me with a positive response. Yours faithfully, Harpreet Kaur.
