Abstract:This document presents the final report on the national evaluation of the San Francisco Urban Partnership Agreement
(UPA) under the United States Department of Transportation (U.S. DOT) UPA Program. The UPA program targeted
congestion reduction through a combination of Tolling, Transit, Telecommuting/Travel Demand Management (TDM),
and Technology, also known as the 4Ts. The national evaluation focused on the San Francisco UPA projects that dealt
with parking pricing in San Francisco and real-time parking information. The SFpark parking pricing pilot implemented
variable pricing in on-street and city-owned off-street parking in selected parking districts. A second project
implemented methods to disseminate real-time information on parking availability and pricing to travelers by phone,
websites, and Smartphone applications. The national evaluation of the San Francisco UPA projects was guided by the
National Evaluation Framework, the San Francisco UPA National Evaluation Plan, and individual test plans for various
types of data. This report provides information on the use and impact of the new San Francisco UPA projects. The
effect of parking price on regulating the demand was examined, as was the impact of parking pricing on traffic
congestion, mode usage, environmental conditions, business and goods movement. Non-technical factors contributing
to the projects’ success were assessed, and the benefits relative to costs were measured.
