Parking Policy - Dumb Cities! 01/04/12 Everyone assumes that Increase in private vehicle use is a foregone conclusion. Parking is a necessity, a public good. People need it. So, government Constantly increases supply of subsidized public parking space – especially through Multi-Level Parking. Pushes private buildings to create more private parking space through regulation. Creates more road infrastructure to cater to the ever increasing number of vehicles attracted to parking.

Parking Policy - Smart Cities! 01/04/12 There is a clear understanding that It is impossible to cater to unending parking demand. Parking is a commodity, not a public right So, government Restricts total supply of parking in every zone to what the local road network can handle. Maximizes the efficient use of parking supply. Charges user fee to control demand. Spends the revenue generated to improve walking, cycling and public transport facilities.
