The operator of the Gulou parking lot in Xiangcheng District holds a business license to engage in parking service activities, which belongs to a private paid parking service unit and implements independent market pricing. The entrance booth is clearly marked and publicized. Due to the shortage of parking spaces near North Street, the contradiction between supply and demand is very prominent, especially in the Gulou parking lot, where there are only 80 parking spaces. The original charging price was 3 yuan per hour, and some people stopped for too long, which greatly reduced the utilization rate of the parking lot. Moreover, the phenomenon that vehicles queue up to enter the parking lot and cause congestion in East Street sometimes occurs. Gulou parking lot raises the charging standard and implements the principle of fast-forward and fast-out, which shortens the parking time and is conducive to alleviating the traffic pressure on East Street. Citizens can choose their own parking lots with lower fees nearby according to their own needs.
To sum up: parking spaces are tight, so you can choose a parking lot with lower fees nearby according to your own situation.
