July the 19th, 2024 – A large 2.25 million euro Zagreb parking project is set to better the city’s overall parking situation, and works have already begun.
As Poslovni Dnevnik writes, owing to the works at the Paromlin complex in the very heart of the capital, a large new Zagreb parking project boasting 450 spaces is gradually coming to life. The City of Zagreb has also stated that it plans to expand and upgrade the car park in the Gredelj complex on Strojarska cesta.
A few days ago, a tender worth as much as 2.25 million euros was announced for contractor bids, and offers can be sent until the end of the month, according to a report from Večernji list.
This big Zagreb parking project encompasses ambitious plans to arrange a new car park which will have about 400 spaces for cars, another 48 spaces for motorcycles, and 52 for bicycles. An additional to all of the above, 25 parking spaces will be reserved for vehicles owned by persons with physical disabilities. An access road will also be built that will lead to the new car park and a bicycle and pedestrian path will be laid alongside it.

The installation of brand new public lighting and horticulture is planned, as is a rainwater drainage system which will be built. New traffic signals will also be arranged. The wider scope of this Zagreb parking project also includes the removal of everything that could get in the way and cause obstacles for the construction site, such as branches and trees, as well as the existing asphalt, rails and even curbs.
“That particular car park currently has a connection to the public road from the direction of Strojarska, and in the future it will also have access from Trnjanska, which is the subject of a special project,” the tender documentation states. The future car park will be located in the western section of the Gredelj complex, at the site on which the current structures will be removed. Back in February, the City of Zagreb announced a tender for the demolition of buildings located in the area of the former factory. Later on in May, the company TGT – ADRIATIK from Pula was selected for the job.
The estimated value of the purchase stood at a steep two million euros, but the deal was concluded for 619,548 euros without VAT. Their task is to demolish the fourteen then existing buildings in order to accommodate the future Zagreb parking project. Some buildings, according to the tender documents, will not be able to be removed because they hold protected status.
