Transport and related parking of vehicles is one of the significant issues in big cities. Increase in traffic is mainly due to suburbanization of the outskirts of the city and its surroundings. These circumstances increase the number of people commuting to the metropolis for work, study or entertainment. Such situation results in deterioration of the environmental quality and parking difficulties. The city of Prague challenges the similar problem. One of the possible solutions to deal with the adverse situation regarding the parking in the city centre seems to be construction of P + R (Park and Ride) facilities. Their purpose is to stop cars at the very entrance to the city and allow passengers to change smoothly to public transport, providing them with easy access to the downtown of the metropolis. This system has already been working for many years in the number of large world cities. It also works in the Czech Republic and especially in Prague. However, not to the extent that would be sufficient. Due to the increasing number of both inhabitants and cars, this research has revealed insufficient number of parking places in the capital city. The article deals with the evaluation of the new transport terminal construction project in Prague. Moreover, it introduces a concept offinancing similar projects. Part of the article also looks into the functioning of Park and Ride facilities around the world. The aim of this paper is to evaluate the impacts that Park and Ride facilities have on their surroundings, especially in the Prague location, and thus contribute to its development.
