The Predjama Sustainable Project Has Been Launched (First Period)
Following the project launch, the Postojnska jama d. d. company joined the Predjama working group, designated by the mayor of Postojna. In addition to Postojnska jama d. d., the group consists of the local residents (Bukovje Civil Parish), representatives of the Municipality of Postojna, and the Institute for Spatial Policies (IPOP). The working group has identified the key challenges, assessed the current situation and gradually designed a set of measures that are an integral part of the mobility plan for Predjama.
During the summer months (July, August and early September), Postojnska jama d. d. in cooperation with the Municipality of Postojna provided regular bus transportation from the Postojna Cave Park to the Predjama Castle for Postojna Cave Park visitors. Organised transportation has reduced traffic congestion in Predjama during the high season. At the end of 2022, Postojnska jama d. d. invested its own funds in a parking lot in Predjama. The company also actively participated in the preparations for a study visit for the Norwegian partners from the Municipality of Strand, who visited us in the last week of September 2022. We gave the project partners a tour of our destination, so they could better understand the traffic in this area, the mobility flows and related problems. We presented the situation and the key challenges, and as part of a workshop, which was held in Predjama the next day, we looked for solutions and formulated proposals for measures, which were later included in the mobility plan. In the subsequent months, we coordinated the proposals for the measures and the mobility plan with all the local stakeholders and project partners. The final result was the adopted document titled The Predjama Tourist Destination Mobility Plan, which includes a set of implementation measures aimed at improving the situation in the field of sustainable mobility.
