Motorists often complain about parking problems and demand that somebody add more spaces, but on examination such problems often turn out to result from inefficient management rather than actual shortage of supply. Parking management refers to policies and programs that result in more efficient use of parking resources. This report describes and evaluates more than two-dozen such strategies. It investigates problems with current parking planning practices, discusses parking facility costs and the savings that can result from increased parking efficiency, describes specific parking management strategies and how they can be implemented, discusses parking management planning and evaluation, and describes how to develop the optimal parking management program in a particular situation. Cost-effective parking management programs can usually reduce parking requirements by 20-40% compared with conventional planning requirements, providing a variety of economic, social and environmental benefits.
