ARCHIVED - Free parking in select Cartagena car parks on Saturdays and afternoons in August
Parking in green and blue zones will be free in Cartagena during the afternoons and Saturdays, all this month
The ORA (Ordinance Regulating Parking) Parking Service in the municipality of Cartagena will once again be free of charge during the evenings and weekends in August. As of Monday August 1, people in Cartagena do not have to pay for parking in the blue and green (working) zones during these days.
The rest of the week, payment for the ORA service is only required from Monday to Friday from 9am to 2pm.
After the summer, the opening hours of the regulated establishment will return to normal – Monday to Friday from 9am to 2pm and from 5pm to 8.30pm. On Saturdays it is open from 9am to 2pm, with afternoons free of charge. Sundays and public holidays are free all year round.
The O.R.A. car parks do not operate on the Saturday after the Friday of Sorrows and Holy Saturday at Eastertime, nor the Saturday after the festivity of Carthaginians and Romans.
Cartagena is not the only town to introduce this free parking measure, as it is also available in Lorca this August.
Fares
The normal fee for the ORA parking service is 20 cents for half an hour; 60 cents for one hour; 1.60 euros for two hours; and 2.50 euros for three hours.
The green zone also has a charge of 2.40 euros for the whole day and 1.80 euros for a morning or afternoon. Tickets can be obtained from vending machines or parking meters located in the area.
About the ORA service
The regulated parking zone, known as ORA, has three different zones marked with different coloured paint.
The blue zone allows a higher vehicle turnover and offers a minimum parking time of 30 minutes and a maximum of 2.5 hours.
The green zone (work zone) is intended for prolonged parking. It works in the same way as the blue zone.
The orange zone (residents) is exclusively for those who live in the vicinity of the zone and have a badge to prove it.
