Abstract:A common transportation problem faced by most universities is inadequate parking supply (capacity) to meet demand. To manage parking, Campus Parking Offices or CPOs usually group parking lots into zones and restrict the use of zones by the type of permit and permit price. Commuter students is the largest group of parking facility users on campus. This research focused on commuter student parking, with the following objectives: (1) To develop a commuter student parking lot Zoning and Zone Permit Pricing (Z2P2) methodology; (2) To develop a software tool called SPARKMAN (acronym for Smart PARKing MANagement) to assist CPOs with estimating commuter student permit prices; and (3) To conduct a survey to understand university students’ preferences among different Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) applications in campus parking and as part of this survey, develop Level of Service (LOS) criteria for parking.
