Lörrach, Deutschland - The city of Lörrach faces a cutting of the parking space. As the reported, the municipal council increased the fees for residents' parking in 2023.

Currently, residents have to pay 120 euros per year, which corresponds to only 33 cents per day.
The city administration has now proposed a gradual increase to one euro per day, which would result in an annual fee of 360 euros. According to the current plans, fees 2026 should be raised to 180 euros, in 2028 to 252 euros and finally in 2030 to 360 euros. This affects both residents' parking and public road parking spaces, the fees of which are also to increase.
Current parking fees and zones

In Parkzone 1, the fees keep 70 cents per hour, while in the lower zones there are a wide variety of tariffs: In zone 2 it costs only 25 cents per started for 20 minutes with a maximum parking time of two hours. In Zone 4, which is aimed at long-term parkers and commuters, the daily parking certificate costs 5 euros and the monthly parking license, as can be read on the urban website Loerrach.de
For residents with parking permits, some areas remain free of charge.

The introduction of a parking zone is also planned, in which it can only be parked in designated areas. This should cost from Monday to Saturday, from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.
technological innovations and controls
For the implementation of the new regulations, parking ticket machines and "mobile phone brands" are to be used in order to reduce the administrative effort. In addition, an effective parking space control will be used, which is to be carried out by the community enforcement service (GVD). The parking spaces are marked in white so that everything remains clear.
