This paper explores how the interaction between human-driven vehicles (HVs) cruising for parking and autonomous vehicles (AVs) traveling back and forth affects travel behavior and congestion. To capture the spatial distribution of parking, we develop a continuous spatial optimization model, with...

Die wissenschaftliche Debatte weist darauf hin, dass das Privileg kostenloser öffentlicher Parkplätze Fahrzeugbesitzer:innen dazu ermutigt, ihr Auto und die damit verbundenen Mobilitätsroutinen beizubehalten. Somit gilt die Umwidmung von Parkplätzen als wertvolle Maßnahme die Verkehrswende...

Physical inactivity poses a significant public health challenge. Numerous studies have argued that urban parks can promote physical activity (PA). However, evidence of physical activity observed over long periods of time in parks is still very lacking. Our serial cross-sectional study within...

Green infrastructure has emerged as an opportunity to balance sociocultural and ecological benefits, alongside the potential for biodiversity conservation in cities. However, key design challenges that remain unsolved including 1) how to effectively balance biodiversity conservation and...

We examine the effect of citywide parking policy on parking and traffic demand. Using a large increase in on-street parking prices for the city of Amsterdam, we show that the policy caused a substantial drop in on-street parking demand, which is not offset by an increase in off-street demand....

The purpose of this study is to produce valid mathematical modeling tasks using parking fees for learning mathematical modeling in SMK. This study used a research development approach by Akker, Gravemeijer, McKenney and Nieveen. This research consists of 3 stages, namely analysis, design and...

Finding a free parking space nowadays is a recurring problem in increasingly crowded pub- lic parking lots. The present study offers a solution that is based on the analysis of zenith images using artificial vision and is capable of automatically analyzing both the available spaces in the...

Economic policies have largely tried to impact the development of innovations from the supply side. However, demand-side policies have received more attention in recent years. Science and Technology (S&T) parks have traditionally been a supply-side innovation policy instrument and have not...

The conflict between the increased parking demand and limited curbside space calls for efficient on-street parking management. Among various parking demands, unsatisfied freight and service vehicles could cause high societal costs. Research has found that these two types of vehicles have major...

Unlike the pretax payroll deductions common for insurance premiums, employees paying for parking may have the option to use either pretax or after-tax payroll deduction. The pretax deduction lowers the Social Security earnings, which could reduce the Social Security benefit to an individual....

In 1992, Amsterdam's voters pushed for a more-aggressive autoluw (`nearly car free'') policy, but progress has been slow. Hourly parking tariffs are the highest in the country, but more cars than ever park in Amsterdam. We explore this promise-results gap in a spatial comparison of the price of...

Very little is known about the efficient collection of fines despite their indispensable contribution to local government budgets. This paper fills an important gap in the literature by studying the effectiveness of deterrence (enforcement) and non-deterrence (social norms) letters that aim to...

This paper examines the effects of changes in downtown parking supply on urban welfare, modal choice decisions and urban spatial structure using a spatial general equilibrium model of a closed monocentric city with two transport modes, endogenous residential parking and a form of bottleneck...

Despite the rapid development of electric vehicles (EVs), the limited range and accessibility of charging infrastructure are still obstacles to the development of EVs. At present, the Chinese government has made great efforts to set up charging piles and the most popular construction mode of...

In Italy, 23 percent of the 7,903 municipalities include protected areas, while 6.4 percent (which we define as park municipalities) national parks. We investigate the relationship between park areas and quality of air and find that park municipalities experienced far lower levels of air...

We examine the eff ect of citywide parking policy on parking and traffic demand. Using a large increase in on-street parking prices for the city of Amsterdam, we show that the policy caused a substantial drop in on-street parking demand, which is not off set by an increase in off -street demand....

This paper investigates how autonomous vehicles (AVs) may change the morning commute travel pattern and improve downtown parking. We develop a continuous-time traffic model that takes into account key economic deterrents to driving, such as parking fee and traffic congestion, and characterize...
