This book was released on 1971 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1967 FHWA recommended that the HRB committee on parking develop a new publication to update and revise BPR's 1956 publication, "Parking guide for cities." In the present study, the committee attempts to view parking across the entire spectrum from the home to the central business district. Eight major topics are addressed: parking characteristics, zoning, parking programs, parking studies, location and design, operation, parking at transit stations, and curb parking. The three appendices comprise a glossary of terms, legal aspects of parking and public use, and change-of-mode facilities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new way forward for sustainable quality of life in cities of all sizes Strong Towns: A Bottom-Up Revolution to Build American Prosperity is a book of forward-thinking ideas that breaks with modern wisdom to present a new vision of urban development in the United States. Presenting the foundational ideas of the Strong Towns movement he co-founded, Charles Marohn explains why cities of all sizes continue to struggle to meet their basic needs, and reveals the new paradigm that can solve this longstanding problem. Inside, you’ll learn why inducing growth and development has been the conventional response to urban financial struggles—and why it just doesn’t work. New development and high-risk investing don’t generate enough wealth to support itself, and cities continue to struggle. Read this book to find out how cities large and small can focus on bottom-up investments to minimize risk and maximize their ability to strengthen the community financially and improve citizens’ quality of life. Develop in-depth knowledge of the underlying logic behind the “traditional” search for never-ending urban growth Learn practical solutions for ameliorating financial struggles through low-risk investment and a grassroots focus Gain insights and tools that can stop the vicious cycle of budget shortfalls and unexpected downturns Become a part of the Strong Towns revolution by shifting the focus away from top-down growth toward rebuilding American prosperity Strong Towns acknowledges that there is a problem with the American approach to growth and shows community leaders a new way forward. The Strong Towns response is a revolution in how we assemble the places we live.

Download or read book Development of Guidelines for Establishing Shared-Use Park and Ride Lots written by Lance E. Dougald and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Due primarily to the expense associated with constructing new park and ride facilities, the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) is interested in the concept of leasing underused parking from private lot owners to supplement construction of new or expansion of existing park and ride facilities. Limited guidance exists to address capacity-constrained park and ride lots, a significant issue that affects many major metropolitan regions with well-developed transit and park and ride systems. In addition, there have been limited studies to explore the role of shared-use park and ride lots for users and stakeholders. The purpose of this study was to examine the benefits, opportunities, issues, and concerns regarding shared-use park and ride lots in Virginia. Based on the study findings, the researchers concluded the following: although the core objective of park and ride lots remains consistent (e.g., reducing the number of vehicles traveling on roadways), the manner in which park and ride lots are implemented can vary; most departments of transportation own park and ride lots whereas few participate in leasing arrangements with private lot owners; lease fees are variable and depend primarily on maintenance negotiations; there are documented lessor concerns with leasing arrangements but leasing of lots provides many benefits and the majority of agencies in Virginia and other states that lease parking spaces from private lot owners have had positive experiences; although VDOT’s Transportation Mobility and Planning Division (TMPD) maintains a detailed and comprehensive park and ride database, there are discrepancies specific to private lots with informal agreements; and VDOT districts need more park and ride lots and there is great interest in using shared-use parking arrangements. The study recommends the following: (1) the TMPD should update its inventory of park and ride lots and remove private lots that are identified as having informal agreements from its public facing interactive map; (2) the TMPD should work with the VDOT districts to update its park and ride investment strategy methodology to include consideration of shared-use lots in each district; (3) with the assistance of the Virginia Transportation Research Council, the TMPD should coordinate with the districts to initiate one or two pilot studies of leasing private lots following elements provided in the guidance developed as part of this study; and (4) upon completion of the pilot studies and documentation of lessons learned, the TMPD should coordinate with the districts to develop a park and ride leasing program. This study and the resulting guidance provide VDOT with a framework for establishing shared-use park and ride lots. Following the framework provided for initiating park and ride lease agreements will provide VDOT with more cost-effective means to increase its inventory of park and ride lots. The traveling public would benefit from increased multimodal opportunities and transit agencies would benefit from increased ridership opportunities. In addition, private lot owners could benefit from increased patronage.

Download or read book High Cost of Free Parking written by Donald Shoup and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-02-25 with total page 752 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Off-street parking requirements are devastating American cities. So says the author in this no-holds-barred treatise on the way parking should be. Free parking, the author argues, has contributed to auto dependence, rapid urban sprawl, extravagant energy use, and a host of other problems. Planners mandate free parking to alleviate congestion, but end up distorting transportation choices, debasing urban design, damaging the economy, and degrading the environment. Ubiquitous free parking helps explain why our cities sprawl on a scale fit more for cars than for people, and why American motor vehicles now consume one-eighth of the world's total oil production. But it doesn't have to be this way. The author proposes new ways for cities to regulate parking, namely, charge fair market prices for curb parking, use the resulting revenue to pay for services in the neighborhoods that generate it, and remove zoning requirements for off-street parking.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a blueprint for developing an integrated parking plan. It explains how to determine parking supply and affect parking demand, as well as how to calculate parking facility costs. It also offers information about shared parking, parking maximums, financial incentives, tax reform, pricing methods, and other management techniques. What types of locations benefit from parking management? Places with perceived parking problems. Areas with rapidly expanding population, business activity, or traffic. Commercial districts and other places with compact land-use patterns. Urban areas in need of redevelopment and infill. Places with high levels of walking or public transit or places that want to encourage those modes. Districts where parking problems hinder economic development. Areas with high land values Neighborhoods concerned with equity, including fairness to nondrivers. Places with environmental concerns. Unique landscapes or historic districts in need of preservation,"

Download or read book Parking and the City written by Donald Shoup and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-04-11 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Donald Shoup brilliantly overcame the challenge of writing about parking without being boring in his iconoclastic 800-page book The High Cost of Free Parking. Easy to read and often entertaining, the book showed that city parking policies subsidize cars, encourage sprawl, degrade urban design, prohibit walkability, damage the economy, raise housing costs, and penalize people who cannot afford or choose not to own a car. Using careful analysis and creative thinking, Shoup recommended three parking reforms: (1) remove off-street parking requirements, (2) charge the right prices for on-street parking, and (3) spend the meter revenue to improve public services on the metered streets. Parking and the City reports on the progress that cities have made in adopting these three reforms. The successful outcomes provide convincing evidence that Shoup’s policy proposals are not theoretical and idealistic but instead are practical and realistic. The good news about our decades of bad planning for parking is that the damage we have done will be far cheaper to repair than to ignore. The 51 chapters by 46 authors in Parking and the City show how reforming our misguided and wrongheaded parking policies can do a world of good.

This book was released on 2010-06-16 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Coming of Age: Geospatial Analysis and Modelling in the Early Twenty First Century Forty years ago when spatial analysis first emerged as a distinct theme within geography’s quantitative revolution, the focus was largely on consistent methods for measuring spatial correlation. The concept of spatial au- correlation took pride of place, mirroring concerns in time-series analysis about similar kinds of dependence known to distort the standard probability theory used to derive appropriate statistics. Early applications of spatial correlation tended to reflect geographical patterns expressed as points. The perspective taken on such analytical thinking was founded on induction, the search for pattern in data with a view to suggesting appropriate hypotheses which could subsequently be tested. In parallel but using very different techniques came the development of a more deductive style of analysis based on modelling and thence simulation. Here the focus was on translating prior theory into forms for generating testable predictions whose outcomes could be compared with observations about some system or phenomenon of interest. In the intervening years, spatial analysis has broadened to embrace both inductive and deductive approaches, often combining both in different mixes for the variety of problems to which it is now applied.
