CMAP Parking Management

Description

ON TO 2050 plan recommendation. Local governments can utilize parking pricing along with other parking management strategies to promote efficient use of existing parking. Examples of parking management strategies include shared parking plans, improved information on availability of parking, and reforming city ordinances to reduce parking requirements for new developments, which are typically designed to accommodate rare peak demand. Revenues generated can assist local governments in the maintenance and management of their existing transportation infrastructure or help improve transit service.

Similar to congestion pricing, the mechanism of "variable pricing" for parking can be used as a demand management tool for congested road facilities, and also raise considerable revenues. Variable parking pricing seeks to apply a free market–inspired pricing system to more efficiently allocate parking supply, with higher prices charged at times and locations of peak demand. Variable pricing has the promise of both effective congestion mitigation and the ability to raise considerable sums for local government.
