The braking control device includes a control amount derivation unit that derives a target vehicle braking force representing a target value of a vehicle braking force applied, and a braking control unit that controls a regenerative braking device and a frictional braking device based on the target vehicle braking force. When the target vehicle braking force is increased, the braking control unit executes a braking force application process of increasing the frictional braking force applied to the wheel so that such frictional braking force becomes larger than the regenerative braking force applied to the wheel. When the target vehicle braking force is increased, the braking control unit executes a switching process of switching at least a part of the frictional braking force applied to the wheel to the regenerative braking force to increase the regenerative braking force applied to the wheel after execution of the braking force application process.
