Description
Eko Parking Sopot
Location:\
Eko Parking Sopot is located on Powstańców Warszawy Street in Sopot, near the Northern Park (Park Północny) and close to Haffnera Street. The facility was constructed in 2017 as part of a project aimed at protecting and revitalizing environmentally valuable areas in Sopot and Ustka. The project was co-financed by the European Union under the Regional Operational Programme for the Pomeranian Voivodeship 2014–2020.

Ecological Solutions:\
Eko Parking Sopot was designed to minimize its environmental impact. The parking surface is made of a cellular geogrid filled with grass, which helps maintain the natural appearance of the area and enables rainwater infiltration into the ground.
Beneath the surface, a drainage system and a separator have been installed to purify stormwater before it is discharged into the adjacent drainage ditches. This solution improves stormwater retention and reduces the risk of local flooding.
Biodiversity Protection:\
Special care was taken to preserve the existing tree population during construction. The parking area was carefully integrated into the layout of valuable mature trees, ensuring that no trees with a trunk circumference greater than 30 cm were cut down.
Infrastructure and Amenities:\
The site provides approximately 47 parking spaces, including three designated for people with disabilities. Lighting and small urban furniture such as benches and waste bins have also been installed to enhance user comfort.
Eko Parking Sopot is a prime example of how urban infrastructure can be harmoniously integrated with environmental protection, combining functionality with respect for nature and the aesthetics of public space.
