Abstract

This article deals with the determinants of choice between on- and off-street parking. In this context, a questionnaire-based survey was conducted and the stated preference method was used to develop an explanatory model. The model assessment showed that parking cost has, as expected, the most important impact on the choice of parking alternatives. Furthermore, all other variables with a significant impact on parking choice are time related, i.e., search time for a parking space, duration of parking and walking time from the parking space to the final destination. It is also shown that parking choice decisions did not depend on driver and trip characteristics. The methodology followed can be used in other similar cases for the identification of parking choice sensitivity, thus providing valuable input to the development of appropriate parking policy in a given area.
