Establishment of the Congestion Charging Zone in the City of Dubrovnik
Highy urbanized areas, such as Dubrovnik, especially in summer season are in need for traffic system adjustments. High traffic demand often exceeds road capacity resulting with constant traffic jams and high pollution level. Dubrovnik is a typical example of a small town with a traffic system that is unable to face the traffic demand generated during summer season. Significant difference between summer season and non-season is made by tourists coming with personal vehicles. Appropriate measure for pollution reduction must include decrease of number of vehicles entering Dubrovnik city centre zone. Setting the city centre zone as a congestion charging zone would have a positive impact on the entire traffic system in the city of Dubrovnik. The entrance in the congestion charging zone would be at the beginning of the Zagrebačka street near the entrance to the underground public garage. New congestion zone requires reconstruction of th part of Zagrebačka street and traffic reorganization regarding exit from the public garage and nearby signalized intersection. Congestion charging zone is a measure for development of sustainable urban mobility and it is an an accordance with Europe's politics regarding air pollution and it is often implemented in cities around the world facing negative ecological impacts. City of Dubrovnik needs significant measures in traffic system to ensure citizens normal mobility and to maintain it's status of a part of the UNESCO's cultural heritage that is already endangered by uncontrolled tourism. Congestion charging zone can resolve the problem of devastation of the Dubrovnik city centre and promote alternative sustainable modes of transport.
