Bratislava changes fines for parking violations and passenger violations on public transport
Bratislava, 16 January 2026 – The amount of a fine for a parking violation under strict objective liability is set by law and applies over the whole of Slovakia. Its current rate ranks among the highest when compared with other cities and countries in Europe. Therefore, the mayor of the capital city has asked the government to reduce this rate for fines. However, the capital city management is also introducing measures that will bring relief to honest parkers. Aside from parking, fines will also change for Bratislava’s public transport system.

Results of meeting of the City Council in December
Bratislava, 11 December 2025 – An early Christmas gift for the people of Vajnory. At the last meeting of the City Council this year, members of the City Council approved a solution to the years-long problem of the ownership of the land under the football pitch in Vajnory. As a result, the Vajnory football pitch will no longer be on land belonging to a private agricultural cooperative. This saves both the pitch and the existence of the Vajnory football club itself. The City Council also approved the acquisition of land for the completion of an important intersection and the missing safe turnoff from Jarovce in the direction of the D4. It further approved the leasing of city premises that will serve mainly to help children and young people with disabilities.
