DECREE ON PUBLIC PARKING SPACES, PARKING CHARGES AND PARKING CARDS

Published: 25.01.2024 (on the website of the Municipality of Bohinj)

The amendments to the current Decision on the determination of public parking areas, parking fees and parking cards concern:

The abolition of two temporary grass car parks (Labora and Kristal).
Establishment of a new car park at Nomen and establishment of parking regimes in existing car parks in Bohinjska Bistrica.
Standardisation of pricing policy.

The proposal for a decision was already presented to the relevant committees of the Municipal Council before the previous session, where the positions of the committees were examined in the discussions before the decision was finalised and no comments were made on the proposal to harmonise prices.

Reasons for the changes:

In 2024, the Municipality of Bohinj will implement the announcements and commitments made in the strategic documents addressing traffic calming in Bohinj (e.g. All strategies were subject to a wide public debate and adopted with strong support at the Municipal Council of the Municipality of Bohinj.

Thus, in addition to the closure of car park P10 Ribčev Laz 10 (lawn opposite Kristal), the final closure of temporary grass car park P07 Ribčev Laz 7 (Labora) is foreseen in 2024. Part of temporary grass car park P04 Stara Fužina 4 (Vegelj) was already closed in 2023. The closure of the car parks is not intended to replace all the parking spaces, but to make use of existing car parks and the new car park at Nomenj.

We are not opening new car parks in Bohinjska Bistrica

In the area of Bohinjska Bistrica, areas of free short-term parking are being created (the car park next to the cemetery, in front of the Joža Ažman Cultural Centre and on Trg svobode (Freedom Square) – in front of the post office and the bank). Here, short-term parking (one or two hours) will be possible. For holders of the “citizen” or “owner of a holiday home” parking card, parking will be available without restrictions. . The condition is that the parking card has been paid for the current year. In practice, this would mean that day visitors will not be able to use these parking passes for all-day parking.

A new car park is planned at Nomenj, next to the railway station.

The level of parking charges is not changed, but the prices in the car parks in each area are standardised. . The car parks are classified into three zones in accordance with the provisions of the Traffic Regulation Ordinance. Parking lots P08 Stara Fužina 8 (Vorenčkojca) and P26 Stara Fužina 26 (under the KD in Stara Fužina) currently have a tariff of 3.0 €/h throughout the year. The proposal brings the parking charges in these two car parks in line with other car parks (e.g. Ukanc, Ribčev Laz) and sets them at EUR 0,5/h (1.1. to 31.3. and 1.11. to 31.12.) and EUR 1,5/h (1.4. to 31.5. and 1.10. to 31.10.) respectively.

The decision is published as part of the material for the 12th ordinary session of the Municipal Council in the announcement: HERE.
