Introduction to Public Parking

Public Parking can be used to inventory parking assets and promote public parking (lots, garages, on-street spaces, and pay stations) alternatives in a downtown or neighborhood.

As downtowns and neighborhoods expand and become more vibrant, accessible and reliable parking information allows drivers to choose a convenient parking option. Any challenge locating a parking option or the perception of a parking shortage will frustrate drivers and impact businesses and restaurants in the area. Managing and communicating parking information helps drivers locate desirable spaces and reduces congestion in a downtown or neighborhood. Public Parking is typically implemented by public works and planning departments that want to educate the public and promote parking assets in their community.

The Public Parking solution delivers a set of capabilities that help you inventory parking assets and share nearby surface lots, garages, and on-street spaces with drivers.
