PARKING ENFORCEMENTIN PRACTICE

23 districts, 11 has on-street parking scheme. (Parking is still free in 12 districts.)

No central coordination. Each district is providing the same (parking) service. Franchise? Hungaropark is taking the lead! We step-by-step try to become a

STRONG COORDINATOR. Unique position and opportunity to shape the face of the Hungarian

parking industry.

ON-STREET PARKING: TAX OR SERVICE? Private operators vs. Municipality owned operators. No vacant place on the street, while parking garages are empty. Why? Congestion Charging in Budapest is a must accoridng to EU. Drivers are not really following up parking matters. No interest?

PARK LOCAL THINK GLOBAL

Parking problems should be solved in people’s minds; not on the street. Back to basics: The root cause of parking issues is: when buying a car

you also buy the parking problem. Discipline or Self Discipline? (Punishment vs. Cooperation). The role of NGO’s.
