How do we solve the problem with parking in Vienna?

 

We had to solve parking problems in Ljubiana and Vienna. This is what we came up with. 

 

We have three main ideas. Our first idea is to have parking garages under the stadiums and our second idea is to build parking lots outside of vienna, then connect them with public transport. The third one is speciffic to Ljubljana; We'd organise busses that'd drive people to bigger public events. Let's elaborate now.

 

For idea number one (Parking garages under the stadiums) we thought of people coming to football games and concerts. The plan is to build parking garages directly under the biggest stadiums of the city, so they don't have to park far away and clog up the road. We'd have entrances and exits on both sides, they would be underground. People would come up to the stadium and back to the garage with elevators. 

 

Our second solution (building parking lots outside of Vienna) is based on using more public transport. So our plan is to build parking lots on Vienna's borders and connect them with U-Bahn.

 

Parking outside of Vienna and public transport would be cheap. Inside Vienna, parking would become really expensive, except for people living there. They would get parking permits for certain lots around their houses, blocks and workplaces. When Viennesse people go the the stadiums, they would also use U-Bahn or S-Bahn to get there.

 

Now, busses. In Ljubljana, we don't have underground modes of transportation, so our solution here will be different than the one in Vienna. The city would send out busses to different parts of town. People could ride them for free the price would be covered with an extra tax. The extra tax would be  pulled from the price of the tickets to different  events. This way, more people would ride on one bus and the carbon emission would be smaller. Also, our vision is to make these busses electric.

 

It's possible to use the same solution in Ljubljana that's used in Vienna, we just have to build     

 U-Bahn first.
