Abstract

This paper presents a parking choice model for enclosed business areas to support the development of a Smart Parking system. The following attributes were included in the experiment: walking distance between parking and final destination; parking tariff; occupancy rate; driving distance between entrance and parking facility; size of parking facility; number of conflicting traffic flows on route between parking and final destinations. The model estimation is based on data gathered with a stated choice experiment. In total, 169 participants of the University's Parking Panel completed the questionnaire that included the experiment. The model estimation shows that walking distance from parking to final destination and parking tariff are the most influential attributes. The model is used to evaluate a parking measure at the parking situation at the campus of Eindhoven University of Technology.
