Park-and-ride operation characteristics in Belgrade

Abstract

Currently, there is only one formal Park-and-Ride lot in Belgrade, eventhough in many other countries this concept of travel has been used in different technological forms for several decades. Its popularity on the global transport market can be explained by the integrated transport idea which is closely related to sustainable development and the rational use of resources and space (which is particularly important for the parking subsystem), as well as by the support it has received from decision makers in the transport sector. Operational effects and improvements of this system still remain the subject of research. Assuming that Belgrade transport policy could take into account the application of such measures in the near future, the aim of this paper is to, on the bases of surveyed performance indicators, determine possibilities and give recommandations for improving such system.
