You mean Park & Ride? Thats here plentiful in Vienna. The problem however is that its not really that cheap. Like all garage buildings are not really cheap.
Making them cheap or even free of charge could foster the demand for them and the PT for sure. But I think that the Wiener Linien do not want that, as the number of customers is rising anyways, even though it has already a higher share in city transportation than most of the other PT owners in other cities.
A cool system might be a "city toll" like in London that finances the park and ride and makes it for free among others.
