The proposal includes lower subway fares and provides two empty plots on the surface with 280 spaces
The delegate of the Cádiz Free Trade Zone Consortium, Victoria Rodríguez Machuca, has today presented a plan to facilitate parking in the city of Cádiz, with the aim of addressing the progressive lack of spaces or specific demands such as those of the car dealerships in the outer complex. This proposal includes lowering rates in the Consortium-owned subways and enabling two plots, currently unused, owned by the Consortium as temporary parking lots.
The proposal for new rates in the Zona Franca subways responds to a careful market study carried out by the technicians of the company Aparcamientos Zona Franca on payment spaces in the city.
This company has three car parks: in the Ramón de Carranza stadium, under the Glorieta building and in the Loreto neighborhood. After this study, Aparcamientos Zona Franca has decided to reduce these rates until they are the most competitive in Cádiz. He average savings for the user of Free Zone parking lots in relation to other parking lots in the area will be 26%. The price of the rotating parking space will be 1.40 euros/hour, which becomes at the rate mcheapest in the entire city of Conit says. Prices range between 2.40 euros for Santa Bárbara and 1.42 euros for Varela.
These new rates, which will come into effect on November 1, have drastically reduced the price of the maximum daily rotation rate, in some cases by up to half than it previously cost. In Carranza it is nine euros and in Glorieta and Loreto, six euros.
The second measure of this plan includes the possibility of installing temporary surface parking, on a provisional basis, on the Talleres Faro and Súper Cádiz plots, in the outer polygon of the Free Trade Zone and which are property of the Consortium. They are currently empty and their transformation into temporary car parks will contribute to responding to the parking needs of this area and the city in general.
The park-and-ride proposal includes about 280 parking spaces divided into two plots. Zona Franca has chosen these two lands since, due to their size and condition, they can be intervened in a short period of time. In this way, a real response is given to the needs of the city, such as, in the case of Talleres Faro, to car dealers who have been demanding parking spaces, especially as a result of the bike lane works; or in the case of Súper Cádiz in an area close to the stadium, and the neighborhoods of Loreto and La Laguna to meet the high residential demand.
