We provide advice on parking issues to local authorities,
hospitals
and educational establishments. We help retailers and private
developers to achieve optimum use of parking. We develop Park
and Ride schemes that reduce congestion by improving
accessibility to town and city centres.
Road space is a finite resource. With increasing car
availability and use, the need to park vehicles and the desires
of drivers to park as close to their destination as possible
result in a number of policy and practical conflicts. Effective
management and control of parking systems play an
increasingly important role as demand for car travel, and
hence parking, continues to grow.
We combine our transport planning, demand forecasting
and traffic
engineering skills to create effective parking systems that enhance
the
economic and environmental well being of towns and cities.
Our work ranges from strategic studies to detailed scheme design,
including operation, demand and supply, pricing and evaluation of
on- and
off-street parking provision.
Increasingly, we are examining the role of bus and
rail based Park and
Ride schemes in conjunction with assessments of options for future
provision of public transport on a wider scale.
