How Will Gent’s New Parking Initiative Impact Local Residents?
The city of Gent is taking significant steps to optimize the underutilized Getouw parking tower, which was built three years ago at a cost of €5 million. The previous administration acknowledged that this project faced planning challenges. Key points include:
- Annual subscriptions for locals within two kilometers
- Aiming to increase usage through partnerships with nearby businesses
- Acknowledgment of future parking demands due to new developments
This proactive approach not only addresses immediate parking needs but also aligns with Gent’s broader vision for urban mobility. As the city continues developing its parking strategy, residents are encouraged to stay informed and take advantage of these new offerings.
