Abstract
Parking is an element that cannot be separated from a facility, including hospitals. Dr. M. Djamil General Hospital, one of the health facilities located in Padang, should have an adequate parking space according to the standard designed for parking facilities. This research is conducted to evaluate the condition of the hospital parking facilities, started by calculating the existing capacity of the parking facility for motorcycles and cars. The next step is estimating the demand for parking spaces based on a one-week observation. Finally, the capacity is compared to the demand for parking areas. It was found 319 and 551 parking spaces available for cars and motorcycles. While based on the observation, it is also known that the maximum demands are 453 and 1038 spaces for cars and motorcycles, respectively. Furthermore, the current parking layout condition has not met the standard yet. This study proposes two kinds of improvement. First, additional parking lots are required, and it is designed based on the demand-capacity comparison. Second, the management of the hospital is suggested to regulate the number of vehicles that can park in the hospital parking area. The main contribution of this paper is on the parking lot design alternatives provided to the hospital.
