ANALYSIS AND USAGE OPTIONS OF “PARK AND RIDE” LOTS IN VILNIUS

Abstract

“Park and Ride” system is an integral part of urban transport systems, providing the ability to change the mode of travel on a daily basis. An analysis of the literature has shown that the “Park and Ride” system is only for car drivers and only for those who enjoy using public transport. Due to the pandemic situation, the increased public attention to their health and the population awareness of environmental pollution, there is a need to adapt the “Park and Ride” sites to a wider range of users – cyclists, pedestrians, electric car drivers. The article seeks to confirm the hypothesis that it is appropriate to transform low-occupancy “Park and Ride” sites into multimodal sites.
