Study Methods

  • Time‐lapse camera data collection (17 locations):

– Parking occupancy: a measure of the percentage

  • f spaces occupied on any given block

– Turnover: a measure of how long, on average, a vehicle spends parked

  • License Plate Readers (390 blockfaces):

– Determines if parked vehicles are registered locally

  • Data collected From April 6th‐13th, 2014

Summary

  • Parking occupancy increased on event days; however, most

sampled blocks still had available spaces.

  • Occupancy was highest closer to the arena and diminished

away from the arena, both on event and non‐event days

  • Data indicates that parking impact of arena events was

more significant on metered blocks.

– Metered spaces become free at 7 pm, near the start of most arena events. – These blocks typically have overnight street cleaning regulations that discourage overnight parking. – Adjusting meter turn‐off time to later in the evening may shift event parkers to non‐metered spaces.
