The overall policy practised by Paris City Hall aims to create a compromise between public health decrees and the economic activity generated by tourism, whilst taking changes in means of mobility into account. It results particularly in an improved handling of the coach presence in the city, one of the levers for this, being the organisation of parking on the public streets.
Several kinds of PassAutocar exist : the Day PassAutocar for occasional trips, the Subscriber PassAutocar for regular trips, and the Shuttle River Boat Pass for visits to Notre-Dame. They can be purchased by Internet (on this website) or on the spot.

Stopping and parking on the Ile de la Cité and the Ile Saint-Louis are prohibited for tourist coaches. From April 2003, tourist groups wishing to visit the Ile de la Cité - in particular Notre-Dame- and Ile Saint-Louis, will be able to take advantage of a regular river shuttle boat service.
Tourist zones correspond to those districts of Paris which are extremely crowded and which are strategic spots of Paris traffic. Stopping and parking are prohibited in these areas outside spaces reserved to coaches.

The highest number of coaches travelling and parking in Paris in the course of a day is reckoned as being close on 2000. The problem of parking is therefore a crucial one.
