"We are going to present in the next October plenary a motion for the City of Lorca to study the possibility of adjusting the meters of the ORA to allow the first two hours free in the regulated parking lots of the blue zone" said Antonio Meca in wheel of the press.
Cities such as Cáceres, Córdoba, Mallorca, Llanes, Xátiva or Torrox have already implemented this method with the objective of improving the parking possibilities, since the downtown area is a commercial reference and of first order services and our visitors need facilities for to be able to leave the car.
According to the councilman "the regulation mechanism is very simple: the first 120 minutes are totally free, but if the parking time exceeds two hours, the user has to pay all the time of occupation of the parking space counting from the first minute The parking meter will extend a ticket free of charge where the parking time is shown in order to have control over its proper functioning.
This means, on the one hand, to guarantee the rotation of car parks by optimizing their use, which favors the merchant and, on the other hand, does not damage the pocket of the citizen.
The central zone is the one that agglutinates most of the public services as well as the main commercial offer of the included population.
It is important to protect the historic trade center, which gives life to the streets, making them more attractive to passers-by.
It should not be forgotten that many of the people who make arrangements or purchase in the center, come from the rural area, neighborhoods far from the center or even tourists, and they are in great trouble to park.
Mecca reinforces the idea with figures: "The net benefit of the blue zone is currently 44,399 euros, a ridiculous figure for the damage to customers of our traditional trade. This system has a deterrent effect that seriously harms trade because it distances to potential customers outside the town. "
