4. WHO, WHAT, WHY, WHERE, WHEN
AND HOW?
1. Where is Deep Cove?
2. Why do people come to the Cove?
3. How do they get to Deep Cove?
4. How much parking is available?
5. Where do people park?
6. When is the peak parking demand?
7. What works well?
8. What could be improved?
9. How was the parking data collected?

6. Where is Deep Cove?
District of
North Vancouver
DEEP COVE

7. Waterfront Community

8. A Place to Reside…

9. Work…

10. And Visit

11. Increased Pressure on Parking and Access

12. Underlying Principle
“Parking is not a destination point. People park
in order to visit, work or reside in an area.”

13. Key Definitions
• Acceptable Walking Distance
• Parking Occupancy
• Maximum Capacity
• Practical Capacity
• Duration
• Turnover

14. Acceptable Walking Distance
• Distance that people are willing to walk between the
place where they parked their vehicle and their
destination
• Affected by:
Quality of the pedestrian environment
Climate
Line of sight
Friction

15. Acceptable Walking Distance
Source: Table 2 - Acceptable Walking Distances, Shared Parking: Sharing Parking
Facilities among Multiple Users (Victoria, BC: Victoria Transport Policy Institute, March
12, 2013)
LONG Major sport or cultural
event
Overflow parking
MEDIUM General retail
Restaurant
Employees
Entertainment center
Religious institution
SHORT Grocery stores
Professional services
Medical clinics
Residents
ADJACENT People with disabilities
Deliveries and loading
Emergency services
Convenience store
LONG
(1,600 ft. /
8 min.)
MEDIUM
(1,200 ft. /
6 min.)
SHORT
(800 ft. /
4 min.)
ADJACENT
(100 ft.)

16. Parking Occupancy
# of vehicles parked
# of spaces provided

17. Maximum Capacity
100% of total capacity Absolute maximum number of
parking spaces in a given area

18. Practical Capacity
85% of the
maximum capacity
Generally accepted parking
industry measure
Represents maximum
functional capacity
> 85% capacity? Finding a
vacant parking space
becomes increasingly difficult
Occupancy rate
of between 75%
and 85%
Considered to be an industry
“best practice”
Reasonable opportunity for a
customer or visitor to find
parking
Parking occupancy
exceeds the
practical capacity?
Customers and/or
visitors would:
Park at less
convenient locations
Potentially shop or
visit elsewhere

19. Goldilocks and the Three Bears
TOO HOT >85%
JUST RIGHT 75 – 85%
TOO COLD <50%

20. Duration
• Average length of time that a vehicle remains parked
• Goal: Observed duration similar to the posted or intended time
• Parking time limits in core business areas / along main streets:
• Typically one hour
• May be two hours depending on abutting businesses,
• Intent of parking limits in commercial areas:
• Provide turnover of prime parking spaces
• Optimize number of customers who can make use of a particular
prime parking space

21. Turnover
• Directly related to Duration
• Number of unique vehicles that make use a parking
space over a study period
• Number of potential people served by the space

22. Turnover and Duration
10 hour period
1 car parked
during a
10 hour period
10 cars parked
1 hour each

23. How was Parking Data Collected?
• Two Options
• Traditional License Plate Survey (Pen & Paper)
• License Plate Recognition (LPR) Survey

24. Traditional License Plate Survey
• Data collected manually (Pen & Paper)
• Record the last four letters / digits from
license plates on a block-by-block basis
over an extended period of time
• Data collection / data entry is expensive
• Manpower intensive
• Time-consuming (large data set)
• Subject to field and transcription errors
• Partial nature of the license plate data
precludes using Pen & Paper to
establish trip origin

25. License Plate Recognition (LPR)
Combines digital cameras and
Optical Character Recognition
software to “read” license
plates on vehicles and store
the image/text as electronic
records
Vehicle-mounted applications
incorporate GPS to capture
location data

26. LPR Data Collection: Process
LPR vehicle circulated
through a study area,
gathering data
repeatedly at 1 hour
intervals during specific
times of the week
Observations
recorded in
Excel
spreadsheet
Data couriered
to MMM for
analysis
1 — LPR VEHICLE
2 — PERSON TEAM
2x — 6-HOUR STUDY PERIODS
3 — PARKING LOTS
74 — BLOCK FACES

27. What was the Rate Of Error?
LPR
Common sources of data errors:
1. Field
2. Non-plate data - Inconsistent /
misinterpreted characters
Rate of Error – 5.9%
4,568 Readings
268 Errors
Pen & Paper
Common sources of data errors:
1. Inconsistent / misinterpreted
characters
2. Field and Transcription
Rate of Error – 4.5%
Source: Guidelines for Data
Collection Techniques and Methods
for Roadside Station Origin-
Destination Studies (Washington,
DC: FHWA, 2005)

28. Error Sources in the Field
• Cars parked too close together
• Alberta license plates (some manually captured)
• Personalized license plates (some manually captured)
• Other cars stopping (in parking lots)
• Bike racks on rear of cars (blocking license plates)
• Cars parked on curb (too high for automatic capture)
• Inability to stop for manual capture in
traffic

29. Non-Plate Captures:
That’s Not a License Plate!
Fence: 111I1A1
Road Closed Sign: R0AD2
Ad on Garbage/Recycling Container:
NFERH0WARD1
Lettering on Truck: D117M000S
Taxi Decal/Sticker: FREQUENISK

31. Data Visualization
• Presentation of data in a pictorial or graphical format
• Enables decision makers to see analytics presented
visually
OBJECTIVE:
Grasp difficult concepts or identify new patterns
