New and Improved Article:
Get ready, Vladivostok drivers! Starting June 2nd, some changes are coming to the city's parking scene. Four new open-air parking lots will soon become paid in the districts of "Okeanskiy Prospekt - Partizansky Prospekt" and along Tolstoy Street, according to a notice published on the official legal information website of the city (PrimaMedia reports).
The first territorial zone of paid parking, No440, will be introduced on a stretch from building No143 to building No117Y on Okeanskiy Prospekt and along house No90. Meanwhile, No450 will cover a larger territory, including building No86 on Prospekt Krasnoogo Znameni to house No46A on Griboedova Street, as well as from house No30 on Tolstoy Street to house No88 on Prospekt Krasnoogo Znameni.
So, how much will it cost? For passenger cars, parking will set you back 75 rubles per hour, motorcycles will pay 37.50 rubles per hour, and trucks and buses will pay 150 and 225 rubles per hour, respectively. Keep in mind, paid parking will only be enforced on weekdays, from 8:00 to 19:00.
Worry not, as certain categories of citizens will still enjoy free parking privileges. This includes individuals with disabilities, their companions, families with many children, participants of the Great Patriotic War, and members of their families, as well as those using electric vehicles equipped with charging devices for electric motors and vehicles of emergency services.
Payment will be processed through the "Digital Primorye" app or via SMS, with the first 15 minutes free of charge.
As for the big question on everyone's mind - what about the new unified standard for parking proposed by Mintrans? While the specifics are yet to be revealed, it's likely that future updates regarding parking in Vladivostok could follow the Moscow experience, including smartphone-based parking payment systems, parking permits, and local traffic police overseeing parking in the city. Keep your eyes peeled for any future announcements!
