Abstract

This chapter deals with the definition, calculation methods, and application of parking standards. The concept of maximal standards is particularly promoted, as they encourage the use of alternative transport modes (such as public transit) instead of car travel, which is in accordance with principles of sustainable transportation system. Parking standards are employed with respect to public transport service coverage of the area where the facility is located and its attractiveness. Residential parking requirements are specifically elaborated, due to the specificity of this use and the status of its users. We suggest measures for mitigation of negative impacts of conventional residential parking requirements on costs, urban land, and transport. Examples of how to determine standards in relevant cities are presented.
