| On-Street Parking Management and Pricing Study |
BackgroundThe Countywide Transportation Plan identified the pressing need for better parking management at the neighborhood level through a range of potential strategies that include the study of neighborhood parking demand and supply, consideration of demand-based pricing and new meter technology, creation of neighborhood parking benefit districts and better enforcement of parking regulations. Project overview
The purpose of the On-Street Parking Management and Pricing Study is
to review San Francisco’s existing on-street parking management
programs and to investigate the potential for using innovative
strategies such as pricing of on-street parking supply more widely as a
transportation demand management tool to increase availability. In
this way, the City can increase the daily utilization and general
availability of on-street parking in congested neighborhoods while also
generating revenues to fund needed transportation improvements. Click here for the background fact sheet of the study. Problem definition and backgroundWhy do San Francisco neighborhoods need better parking management?
Goals of the studyOne of the main goals of the On-street Parking Management and Pricing Study is to limit traffic congestion and other impacts by reducing the number of vehicles circling neighborhoods streets searching for an available space. This study will also investigate strategies to promote the efficient use of on-street spaces while maintaining convenient curbside spaces for short-term uses in commercial areas (e.g. customers vs. employees). Lastly, the study will seek neighborhood level parking solutions that are easy to understand. Partner Agencies
