CultFit keeps its promise to RW – Shifts employee cars to a vacant site
In August, Residents Watch had sought out CultFit about the increasing inconvenience that both the residents and the Swabhimaana Tree Park visitors were experiencing on 15th B Main, Sector 3, as their employees were parking their cars all along the road.
The management of CultFit promised to us that they were in the process of buying a parcel of land to precisely tackle this issue. And now, we are pleased to inform that they have kept their word. All the cars of their employees are now being parked on an empty site on 19th Cross, behind their administrative office building on 18th Cross. In addition, the dirty water from the office that was flooding the footpath has stopped too.
SOME PROBLEMS REMAIN
However, some problems remain. We urge them to resolve this as soon as possible too. The rooftop chimney of their office building faces the residential houses instead of the sky and over a dozen split ACs face the road, spitting out hot air towards the pedestrians. Since CultFit now owns the entire building, it is its job to ensure that they or the landowner shift the ACs to the terrace.
That’s not all. The residents are complaining that the CultFit gym on 19th Main in Sector 4 is causing major inconvenience to residents as visitors park all along the road, blocking their pathways.

Venting her ire on social media, resident Veena Bala writes, “We always have Cult Fit members parking right in front of our gate. No amount of complaints to them with pictures of their members parking has been obliged. And none of their centres have parking, so all their members park on the roads, blocking traffic, and many right in front of the gate where we cannot even get our vehicles in or out. We have to wait till their members finish the class. And again if we are not outside, another member will park and go.” An easier way to tackle this problem is if CultFit goes for ‘valet parking’ here just the way they have it at their corporate office on 18th Cross. And if there are other measures, they could take, like buying a parcel of land just for their visitors, that would be great too!
