Abstract

A method is provided for controlling traffic in a parking environment comprising at least one parking space and used by at least a first group of manually operated traffic participants and a second group of automatically operated traffic participants. A central control device by considering current status information of traffic participants as determined by sensors and/or transmitted by the traffic participants, determines instruction information for each traffic participant. The instruction information describes the future operation of each traffic participant in a common route planning for all traffic participants using the parking environment. The central control device transmits the instruction information, via a communication link, to at least one part of the traffic participants. The instruction information is used for outputting information and/or automatically controlling each traffic participant.
