Abstract:
Traffic moderation in cities is a process that reflects the pursuit for a new quality of life as well as applying modern transport policies at European level. In practice, there are many different types of this process depending on the type of area, road and citizens’ requirements. Parking policy represents a compromise between free mobility, accessibility and life quality. Parking is not autotelic, it is always derived from some other necessity. This is the reason why parking should be involved in urban policy
connected with mobility and accessibility. In this contribution I would like to deal with these topics in greater detail. The main topic of this contribution is the presentation of transport research in the town of Žilina, such as directional research and research of acceptability that have been carried out in order to create a model for decrease in externalities with the assistance of electronic fee collection of driving
through the centre, as well as solving of fees for parking in central parts of the town of Žilina.
