In Almaty, 15,344 car owners are utilizing discounts on public paid parking. Efforts continue in the city to improve the system of municipal paid parking, considering the needs of various resident categories. Ensuring the accessibility of parking infrastructure for socially vulnerable groups and other categories of citizens eligible for benefits remains a priority direction.

Discounts are provided for people with special needs in Groups I and II, veterans of the Great Patriotic War, families with many children, families affected by the outcomes of nuclear tests at the Semipalatinsk Test Site, as well as for owners of electric vehicles and special transport.

Currently, there are over 17,000 public parking spaces in Almaty, with plans to increase this number to 25,000. In line with this, the authorities aim to simplify the process for obtaining discounted permits and to develop digital services, allowing car owners to access the necessary services with less time investment.

At the Almaty Parking State Enterprise, it is noted that the expansion of the parking network will be accompanied by improvements in service quality and increased accessibility for different categories of residents.
