In order to encourage the heavy-duty passenger vehicle sector to optimise the use of parking resources, the Heavy Passenger Motor Vehicles Parking Lot of Barra Public Transport Interchange will provide a one-hour free parking promotion starting at midnight (00:00) tomorrow until 11:59 p.m. on December 31, according to a joint statement from the Transport Bureau (DSAT) and Macao Light Rapid Transit Corporation (MLM) yesterday.
During the promotional period, the first hour of parking in the carpark will be entirely free of charge. If a vehicle stays over one hour, the standard rates will apply to the remaining duration: 6.0 patacas per half-hour (or part thereof) between 8:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m., and 3.0 patacas per half-hour (or part thereof) during all other hours, the statement said.
The statement noted that the carpark is located on the second basement level (B2) of the Barra Public Transport Interchange, providing 27 parking spaces and 6 temporary drop-off/pick-up bays for heavy passenger vehicles.
The Light Rapid Transit (LRT) company will closely monitor the usage of this incentive, adjusting service arrangements as necessary based on operational needs, while continuously gathering feedback from the industry and the public to improve overall supporting services, the statement added.
