According to him, a similar system is operating successfully on Kote Abkhaz Street, Orbeliani Square and nearby streets.

"We are gradually introducing a zonal-hourly parking system in the city. This is a new direction for Tbilisi. We have asked the population several times to register their cars in the information kiosks in order to use these places for free. Parking will be free for owners of electric vehicles and persons with disabilities, as well as for holders of Category A taxi licenses. For the guests, the parking fee for one hour will be one GEL", - said Kakha Kaladze.

The zonal-hourly parking system, which was launched in Saburtalo district on September 10 this year, includes several avenues and streets. The new parking system will cover Mitskevich, Tsintsadze and Bakhtrioni streets (from the intersection of Gamrekeli Street) completely from Zhvania Square to Pekin Avenue. In addition, zonal-hourly parking will be operating on Kazbegi Avenue (before the intersection of Gamrekeli Street) and Vazha-Pshavela Avenue (before the intersection of Beka Street). In parallel with the municipal pavilions, Tbilisi Transport Company employees will assist car owners in paying for paid parking, as well as in using free parking, downloading the application, registering and solving other parking issues.
