Parking space demand study on the busy corridor of Modasa Town

Abstract

One of the problems created by road traffic is
parking. Not only do vehicles require street space to
move about, but also do they require space to park.
Every vehicle owner would wish to park their
vehicles closely as possible near to their destination
so to minimize their walking. This results in a great
demand for parking space in the CBD where the
activities are concentrated.
In Modasa town due to the lack of parking facilities
on the busy corridor faces the parking problems like
delay of vehicles travel time, congestions,
accidents, no utilization of footpaths.
This paper reports the on-street parking behavior
and the analysis of parking space demand study on
the busy corridor of Modasa town and some
remedial measures to overcome these problems.
