Parking policy should be part of an integrated revitalization strategy. An integrated approach requires the implementation of processes that influence the determination of the value of parking indicators. It is also important to implement projects that will indirectly contribute to improving the situation in degraded areas. One of such actions is the implementation of a parking policy that aims to eliminate the problem of congestion in city centers. There are no mandatory indicators for the minimum number of parki...

Currently the number of cars in Polish cities is growing faster than the number of inhabitants. There are already 878 registered vehicles in the Polish city of Wroc?aw for 1000 inhabitants. Parking problems affect not only the city center, but also more and more its edges. There is a shortage of parking spaces on many new multi-family housing estates. The following questions arise: how does Wroc?aw's parking policy counteract this negative trend? How many parking spaces falls on one dwelling in development investm...

The parking problem, as well as congestion of cities and environmental pollution is the result of urbanization and motorization process. A car is the basic means of transport for many residents. Unfortunately, it takes up space: in the workplace, at the place of residence, at a shop and at school.

The aim of the paper is to define the current status of public cubature car parks in Polish cities and presenting experiences of selected cities of Western Europe - as examples which will be follow...

The paper presents the analysis of resolving the problem of parking in Wroclaw according to P&R rules. The analysis uses software tools made based on evaluation model of P&R facilities location. The model was built on the basis of urban expert knowledge transformed into fuzzy inference algorithm. Fuzzy inference is commonly used in computer science as a decision-making tool of artificial intelligence. The proposed model of evaluation of the location of P&R objects in the first stage of the work was subjected to a ...
