Berlin: parking fee exemption for e-scooters, bicycles, cargo bikes – Transport Xtra
Giving bikes and cargo bikes exemptions from parking fees will do much to encourage the take-up of low carbon mobility and logistics services – let’s hope the UK is keeping an eye on this development
From January 2023, parking in Berlin will become more expensive – for cars. This week, the Berlin Senate passed a bill from the Senate Department for Urban Mobility outlining the new rates – but bicycles, pedelecs, cargo bikes, light motorcycles and motorcycles are excluded from any parking fee and will be able to park freely in spaces designated for car parking (“traffic areas of stationary traffic”) from next year.
