Parking spaces on the promenade, more than 30 years ago …
Long ago, when I was still a child, cars were parked on the city promenade … That’s how it was regulated then. We had a nice and wide promenade …
Parking during the day, the promenade at noon, and in the evening. And everything worked …
Our promenade has about 10000 m2. One part of it was a marked parking space … I don’t remember if a parking ticket was paid for… Probably not because there was no blue color …
Today we have to pay for parking spaces…
Underground parking spaces under promenade…
About twenty years ago, maybe more, our city’s central promenade was being renovated … Since the historical whole is protected, deep excavations had to be done …
Then I drew and suggested to the former mayor, how to solve the problem of parking space in our city. The idea was to build two floors under our entire 10000 m2 promenade. Each floor would have three units.
Business premises, a dual-purpose shelter, and public parking spaces … I even found a company in Germany that would finance it. But there was no political hearing from the City authorities …
The idea failed …
Parking on footpaths …
Today, the City of Slavonski Brod took over the task of charging for the use of parking spaces. Due to the fact that the concessionaire’s concession expired … The math is clear as many parking spaces, more money …
So, because of that logic, new parking spaces began to be built … As well as new parking spaces were drawn, wherever there was space. And that blue color that was not long ago …
I am afraid that the authorities are going to extremes, not sufficiently taking into account the needs for pedestrians … As well as for children’s or wheelchairs … The usurpation of pedestrian paths continues, once marking bicycle paths, today parking spaces…
I am afraid that this little space, which is left for pedestrians, will be occupied by those who drive scooters and the like …
Why does the City Administration not regularly maintain/control it?
