停車多待了一分鐘，卻要向上取整多付半個鐘甚至一個鐘的停車費……這種“向上取整”的收費方式，讓許多車主苦不堪言。

今年開始，全國多地對道路、公共停車場的停車收費進行了下調，延長了免費停車時長，降低了收費標準，還開始推行以分鐘為單位的精準計費。

Parking for just one extra minute can sometimes mean paying for another 30 minutes, or even a full hour.

Starting this year, many cities across China have cut parking fees, extended free parking periods, and begun introducing more accurate, minute-by-minute billing.

最近，浙江杭州的一位車主發現，家門口的公共停車場從原來“向上取整”已經開始按分鐘收費?！斑@個挺好的，停多少分鐘就收多少錢。好多停車場，停了兩小時多幾分鐘，就要按照多停一小時來收費。”

A driver in Hangzhou, Zhejiang province, found that a public parking lot near his home had stopped rounding up fees and started charging by the minute.

"It's much better. You pay for the exact time you park," he said.

運營該停車場的工作人員表示公司旗下的3個停車場都參與了停車收費政策改革試點，車主對這個計費方式紛紛好評。

上海市發展改革委日前發布公告，對上海市道路停車收費政策優化方案公開征求意見。優化方案擬規定，車輛在上海市道路停車場（同一路段內）停放時長15分鐘（含）以內免費，超出15分鐘的，自開始停放時間起計費；單臺車輛在全市范圍內每自然日可享受2次短時免費停車。

Shanghai has also released a draft plan to improve roadside parking fees. Under the proposal, vehicles parked for 15 minutes or less on the same road section would be free of charge. Once parking exceeds 15 minutes, fees will be calculated from the start of the parking time. Each vehicle could enjoy this short-term free parking twice per day across the city.

方案發布后，不少市民都認為，新規對臨時停車辦事十分友好。讓車主開車更靈活；辦事更方便。

對比新舊收費標準可以發現，此次收費標準調整體現了政府部門通過價格杠桿調節停車資源，鼓勵發展街邊經濟、夜間經濟的政策考量。今年以來，江西南昌、湖南長沙等地，都已出臺相關政策，優化城市道路停車管理細則。

This year, cities including Nanchang in Jiangxi province and Changsha in Hunan province have also introduced similar policies to improve urban roadside parking management.

北京交通大學北京綜合交通發展研究院教授鄭翔表示，我國城市道路停車收費管理，正在從先收費后服務的粗放模式，向時停時付的精準化運營模式轉型。這背后其實是消費者權益保護規則、智慧停車技術能力與城市治理邏輯的共同升級。

According to Zheng Xiang, a professor at Beijing Jiaotong University, China's urban parking fee system is shifting from a rough, pay-first model to a more precise pay-as-you-park approach, driven by stronger consumer protection, smarter parking technology, and better urban governance.
