PARKING SPACE EVOLUTION & ACCESSIBILTY MANAGEMENT THE STRATEGIC CHOICE Which mobility tool for adjusting the modal split to inner urban areas? manage movement (congestion charging, road pricing, etc.) or manage the static part of traffic (parking)
PARKING SPACE EVOLUTION The 21 EPA countries paid parking offer 14.000.000 new private vehicle registrations in 2015 EU
PARKING SPACE EVOLUTION Total 62% for av. 11 cars/space 10.461.639 = 48% 10.742.499 = 89%

CORRECT PRICING FOR CITY STREET PARKING Mr Siim Kallas explicitly expressed the importance of parking as an economic and operative component of the urban mobility systems of our European cities. Parking policies and differentiated parking supplies and parking fees can contribute: to a more efficient use of private cars as an economical instrument for determining the overall mobility demand optimizing space that is a precious commodity and to integrating different mobility modes
PREFERENTIAL CONDITIONS FOR PARKING, TYPES OF PREFERENCES, RULES AND LIMITATIONS FOR GRANTING PRIVELEGES The different parking clients who require distinct parking products are: a. Residents on and off street long term parking near their homes b. Non residents on and off street for short and medium term turnover parking c.
