ABSTRACT
1.
Various study and research findings gathered over the recent years
show that there has been an exponential increase in the number of
vehicles in the cities. The high number of vehicles in urban areas
has led to several negative effects and one of the key challenges is
the unavailability of parking spaces especially in the peak hours.
As a result, most urban areas have a gridlock especially in the mid
to late morning hours where motorists , residents and stakeholders
waste their time and money in form of fuel as they await to
occupy the limited available parking spaces. This impasse has
additional far reaching effects in deference to health, where
motorists are exposed to excessive exhaust fumes as they await to
park their automobiles. Companies and governments have taken
note of this problem and are starting to search for lasting solutions
to the parking crisis in most major cities such as New York,
London and Sydney. Among the most promising solutions is the
use of advanced technologies known as Smart Parking - to
provide real-time parking data to help motorists to save time,
money and health as well as facilitate the reduction of GHG
emissions and traffic congestion. This report seeks to evaluate the
significance of smart parking and also discuss new innovations in
smart parking while exploring their advantages and disadvantages.
This report will also assess the impact of smart parking on urban
design, both at present and in the near future.

THE IMPACT OF SMART PARKING
ON URBAN DESIGN
Smart parking encourages multiple mobility options for
pedestrians and cyclists by optimizing the connectivity of the
street, lane and open space network. As a result, integrating smart
parking into urban design introduces a paradigm shift from
functionality to flexibility in urban design [7]. The design of road
networks, implements and structures is therefore focused on
improving the quality and efficiency of parking layouts while also
creating a safe and attractive environment. The main objectives of
urban design are reduce the amount of traffic congestion and air
pollution in the city as well as facilitating the security and
wellbeing of residents and visitors [6]. Planning for smart parking
on car parks, buildings and street parking lanes that is considered
the important tool of urban design and which allows for the
development of high quality, flexible infrastructure within a city.
