ABSTRACT
The global urbanisation process considers mobility as a high priority in today’s urban agglomerations, such that the mobility is the basic condition of the sustainable urban development. The living trends in urban agglomerations and the high motorisation rate increase, together with considering space rationality, demand a necessity for transport and other experts to manage entire travel demand, so the modal shift of mobility becomes an imperative. The parking policy and parking demand management is an unavoidable tool which is used to make changes in current modal split due to the excessive private car usage in the urban environment. The goal of this paper is to show the fundamental reasons for using parking policy and parking demand management in the City of Zagreb, and to show an analysis of the current state of policy with the basic advantages and disadvantages. The analysis is used to make conclusions on defining future approach to parking demand management policy in the City of Zagreb as a part of the comprehensive travel demand management approach.
