Donostia-San Sebastián is a city of significant tourist attraction that has 15
public car parks. Between 60% and 70% of visitors/tourists arrive to the city by car, as the public transport (train or plane) is not optimal. This often creates situations of excessive saturation in the city, which worsens considerably during periods of high tourstic flow, causing serious mobility problems.
In the past, there were some informative panels that indicated the free spaces using green/red lights. However, this information was inssuficient originating unnecessary traffic in the city centre, due to the number of people trying to park their cars on the roads, even though there were free spaces in the car parks. As a result, the City Council identified the need to have a more efficient mobility management.
