• For NYDOT:

• Complete “Munification”• Implement operational cost savings• Expand metered areas where appropriate to land uses• Pay-by-cell implementation starting with pilot• Develop cost-effective space availability systems• Continue pricing pilots• Comprehensive parking programs meeting neighborhood

needs and opportunities

What’s Next?

• Key issues for cities

• What curb management policies provide the greatest value and best achieve goals of economic vitality, mobility and quality of life?

• How best to build a complete parking system?• Technologies• Pricing• Analytics• Operational efficiencies

• User response to information, pricing and payment innovations

What’s Next?

Creating Value out of Technology

• Parking is becoming a process whereby drivers:• Make decisions about when and where they are driving• How they look for a space• Hoe they pay for a space • Any other conveniences that come along with that process

• Parking is becoming a process whereby cities:• Cities are finding operational and programmatic

improvements through the use of technology • Are gaining the analytical tools and methods to improve the

operation and efficiency of a limited supply of parking • Are using the curb to achieve much broader transportation

goals to reduce congestion and promote high-performance modes of transportation
