Impact of Parking Supply and Demand Management on Central Business District (CBD) Traffic Congestion, Transit Performance and Sustainable Land Use
Parking is one of the thorniest problems facing local officials who wish to maintain the vitality of central business districts (CBD). Viewed in isolation, the solution often is seen as more parking, at least, and more free parking, if possible. But parking is not an isolated issue, it is integral to the overall traffic dynamic and must be balanced against other aspects, such as congestion, delays, and travel time reliability. More free parking might be viewed as an obvious benefit, but if it leads to greater congestion and customer frustration, it could discourage, rather than encourage, visits to business districts. In this project, University of Florida explored the connection between strategies to manage parking supply/demand, transportation system outcomes, and congestion management. Specifically, they examined the CBDs of Fort Lauderdale and Miami from the perspectives of Transportation System Management (TSM), Transportation Demand Management (TDM), revenue streams, transit use and performance, and sustainable land use.
