Studies developed by researchers from Boston University reveals that over 30% of the drivers lost around 8 minutes looking for a free space around the zone where they must stop their car. Finding with difficulty a vacant parking place became ordinary activity for most of the drivers. In 2019 there were 700,000 people who visited or participated to shows, more than 4 times the population of Sibiu that produces a further pressure on local drivers. For example, in Sibiu, during the theatre festival or international events like auto-moto rallies, the municipality restricts parking places, providing these for guests or organizers.
