The premiere of the INRIX Parking Scorecard.
Adding to its arsenal of scorecards (traffic and signals), INRIX is releasing its first ever parking scorecard. Leveraging its vast parking data from over 21,000 cities with enough curb length to wrap around the earth 2.6 times, the scorecard focuses on the downtowns of 123 cities across North America and Europe. Looking at on (curb) and off (garage) street pricing, the relative availability of parking spaces as highlighted by INRIX’s parking model, and the mix of curb policies, the parking scorecard represents one of the first comparisons of its kind at such a large scale.
With such a dataset, we are calling in experts from the Parking Reform Network and consulting world to talk about what the scorecard tells us about the relationship between policy, pricing, and ease of parking.
In this webinar, panelists will discuss:
- Which cities have downtown areas where is harder to find parking? Take a look at some of the cities where you are least likely to find an open space on a typical block. Is this a problem or is it this way by design? What do the underlying policies tell us?
- Why do cities have such different parking policies between neighborhoods? The scorecard also shows curb inventory, policies, and ease of finding parking at the neighborhood level. The panel will provide context on why certain neighborhoods seem to meet city goals while others fly in the face of them.
- How should cities price their curb in comparison to off-street garages? In some cities, off-street parking is many multiples of the on-street price. In others, the pricing is similar. In others, it is more dynamic by length of stay.
Presenters
- Tony Jordan, President, Parking Reform Network
- Michael Schwartz, General Manager, City Solutions, INRIX
This session is designed for parking operations, planning, and policy staff at public agencies, private parking operators, and private sector stakeholders who want to look at national and international benchmarking to compare with their own efforts. The goal of the Parking Scorecard is to start a discussion on common and best practices related to parking and to provide a broader context for why parking can differ so much between and within cities.
