The Generalitat approves the Urban Master Plan to create modal interchange parking spaces
The Generalitat de Catalunya has approved the Urban Master Plan which aims to create more than 14,000 modal interchange parking spaces throughout the metropolitan region of Barcelona. This plan includes the construction of more than 600 modal parking spaces in the Osona region, with the aim of encouraging the use of public transport and reducing the circulation of private vehicles.
Promote the use of public transport
The main objective of this plan is to promote the use of public transport as the preferred means of travel, thus reducing dependence on the private vehicle and reducing traffic and pollution problems. Intermodal parking spaces will be strategically located near public transport stations, thus facilitating the connection between private vehicles and public transport.
Benefits for users
These modal interchange parking spaces will offer several benefits to users. Firstly, they will allow the vehicle to be parked safely and comfortably near the public transport station, thus avoiding the need to search for parking in congested areas. In addition, users will be able to enjoy reduced or free rates when using public transport, further encouraging the use of this sustainable means of transport.
Reduction in the circulation of private vehicles
With the creation of these modal exchange parking spaces, a significant reduction in the circulation of private vehicles in the Osona region is expected. This measure will contribute to improving mobility and reducing traffic congestion problems, especially in the busiest urban areas. In addition, the reduction of private vehicles in circulation will have a positive impact on air quality and the reduction of pollutant emissions.
Commitment to sustainability
This plan is part of the commitment of the Generalitat de Catalunya to sustainability and the reduction of environmental impact. Encouraging the use of public transport and reducing the circulation of private vehicles are key measures to achieve more sustainable mobility and contribute to the fight against climate change. With this initiative, the aim is to improve the quality of life of citizens and preserve the environment for future generations.
