To combat the spread of the coronavirus, surface parking has been free since Friday in Montpellier. "This measure was taken to limit travel as much as possible," explains Philippe Saurel, the mayor (DVG) of the seventh city in France.

For several days, TaM agents (who have the public service delegation for parking on public roads) have no longer fined vehicles.

However, underground car parks are subject to charges. Before Montpellier, other cities have already taken this step, such as Marseille or Nîmes.
