• Comprehensive parking programs meeting neighborhood

needs and opportunities

What’s Next?

• Key issues for cities

• What curb management policies provide the greatest

value and best achieve goals of economic vitality,

mobility and quality of life?

• How best to build a complete parking system?

• Technologies

• User response to information, pricing and payment

innovations

What’s Next?

Creating Value out of Technology

• Parking is becoming a process whereby drivers: • Make decisions about when and where they are driving

• How they look for a space

• Hoe they pay for a space

• Any other conveniences that come along with that process

• Parking is becoming a process whereby cities: • Cities are finding operational and programmatic

improvements through the use of technology

• Are gaining the analytical tools and methods to improve the

operation and efficiency of a limited supply of parking

• Are using the curb to achieve much broader transportation

goals to reduce congestion and promote high-performance

modes of transportation
