Despite the Sochi railway station offering complimentary parking, motorists are allowed to park for just a quarter of an hour.
Sochi Railway Station Takes New Parking Measures
Effective immediately, motorists can enjoy 15 minutes of free parking near the railway station, according to a recent announcement made on the Telegram channel of the Sochi Department of Transport and Road Management. Taxi drivers and private vehicle owners can now drop off passengers at the platforms conveniently within this timeline.
Road workers are set to paint markings and install delineators in the area soon to reinforce the new parking rules.
Previously reported, parking charges in Sochi vary depending on the street's demand. Central urban districts host zone 01, where higher hourly parking rates apply compared to zones 02 and 03. In zone 01, the rate is 170 rubles per hour, while zone 02 charges 125 rubles, and zone 03 levies 105 rubles per hour.
While specific pricing details for zones 01, 02, and 03 remained unavailable at the time of this report, it's recommended visitors contact local authorities or consult official city or municipal websites for the most accurate and up-to-date parking regulatory and fee information.
Guests utilizing the open unguarded parking lot at Casino Sochi may refer to the Krasnaya Polyana resort's parking rates for applicable fees, as previously stated.
The Sochi Department of Transport and Road Management is also planning to introduce changes in public-transit transportation for smoother operations at the railway station. To support the growth in the industry, local finance will be used to enhance transportation infrastructure, including the public-transit system.
