Minsk Cracks Down on Illegal Parking with New Automated System
Minsk Tightens Parking Enforcement with Automated System Minsk, Belarus – Starting June 9, 2025, the city of Minsk has implemented a new system to crack down on illegal parking. Authorities are using an automated hardware-software complex to detect and record parking violations. The system automatically identifies vehicles parked illegally and sends notices to the registered owners. "The main focus is on the central city areas and streets where improper parking causes traffic problems and increases the risk of accidents," explains a city official. The system aims to improve traffic flow and public safety. The penalties for illegal parking are being increased. For a first offense, drivers receive a warning. However, repeat offenders within a year will face a fine of 42 rubles. This stricter enforcement reflects the city's commitment to addressing traffic congestion and ensuring safe roadways. This new system is expected to significantly improve the parking situation in Minsk, making the city more efficient and safer for all.
