Research on public parking lots planning based on traffic demand management

摘要

This paper introduced the concept of traffic demand management into the process of parking lots planning, and efforts were taken to achieve the traffic demand management concept which advocated go-aheadism, homeostasis and public transport priority. During the parking demand forecast stage, varieties in the transport structure and trip mode arising from the changes in dynamic traffic and demand management policies were taken into account, a model for forecasting parking demand was established whose results are more in line with actual parking needs. During parking lots distribution stage, the initiative influence of the parking lots was studied, and the principles for parking lots distribution were proposed out respectively from a macro strategic point of view, from the micro-strategic point of view and from the middle-level strategic point of view. According the parking service characteristic and the public transport priority rule in traffic demand management, a parking lots distribution optimization model was built under the consideration of dynamic traffic needs. The result can provide the theory foundation for public parking lots planning reasonably.
