An Assessment of Parking Demand and Facilities of Rajkot Regional Bus Stand
Journal Title: GRD Journal for Engineering - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 5
Abstract
Each medium of transportation involves three necessary elements, without which it cannot operate effectively: the vehicle, the right-of-way, and the terminal. For water transportation, these essentials consist of the vessels, waterways, and port facilities; for railroad transportation, trains, tracks, and stations; for air transport, planes, airways and airports. Similarly, the elements of motor transportation are vehicle, the road, and a place to park at the end of the trip. Parking space availability is one of the most serious issues in most of the cities. The increase in heavy population in cities has resulted in increase in the travel demand. The study area is Rajkot GSRTC Bus stand area which in turn generates high parking demand. The basis of study is parking demand along the Rajkot ST Bus stand. The license plate method will conducted for collecting the data of current conditions for improving services. The parking management strategies like short term, medium term and long term, the way that can be implemented are discussed. To solve the current parking problem and solutions which are used to recommend that will manage the parking facility of off-street parking. But based on the future parking demand in the study area long term parking management can also be suggested, such as provision of Multistory Parking.
