On Nov. 30, 2023, the City Council agreed to move forward with the reintroduction of paid parking from April 2024. This also affects religious organizations in areas where paid parking had not previously been introduced. The schedule for the introduction of paid parking is:
April 1, 2024: Pendrecht and Wielewaal
June 3, 2024: Zuidwijk and Zuiderpark
Third quarter 2024: Lombardijen
Fourth quarter 2024: IJsselmonde Noord (incl. Kreekhuizen and western part of Oud-IJsselmonde)
First quarter 2025: IJsselmonde Zuid and business park Hordijk
Each religious institution will be enabled to apply for parking permits if desired. Instead of a parking permit, these organizations can also opt for a bundle of hours of 132 hours per month. In terms of costs, there will additionally be a growth model for the religious institutions. This ingrowth model also applies to the bundle of hours.
