This paper studies the profitability of building a leisure area combined with an underground car park. The particular case studied shows the doubt surrounding the profitability of the work due to the high construction costs of the car park and the uncertainty surrounding the area's future usage. A cost-benefit analysis is therefore performed considering four alternative projects: a car park of one or two floors built using sheet piling and a car park of one or two floors built using concrete screens.Applying the corresponding sensitivity analysis shows that, depending on the tariff charged, one building method may be more profitable than another.

Passenger Preference Analysis: Light Rail Transit or Bus Versus Car

et al. 2012

To begin with, his article studies the user's preferences when faced with the introduction of two completely different public transport systems: the bus and the Light Rail Transit (LRT). Also, it examines how the modal distribution varies between the private car and each of the new systems, in particular. In addition, the most important variables for users when travelling in a congested corridor are individualized and a study is made on how these variables influence on the modal distribution. The results of the stated preferences of surveys are modelled using mixed logit models. Values are estimated for user's time and the demand elasticity is determined with respect to the relevant variables. Different situations are created to analyse how user's behaviour changes with the changes in the most important variables. Furthermore, this article quantifies the effects of the more relevant variables and shows that the LRT can attract more demand than a bus service, but it must guarantee a regular and frequent service, at the same time as charging competitive fares. It is also shown that for the introduction to be more successful any taken action should be accompanied by policies that chastise the use of the private car such as increased parking charges or higher fuel taxes.

“…Various studies are available in the international bibliography which have tried to change the established urban and mobility policies, such as was discussed by Azari, et al [3], Chang, et al [4], and Pierce and Shoup [5] who studied fee charging as a way of correcting the problems resulting from an excessive demand for too little parking supply. Further examples of research into WTP for parking can be found in the work of authors such as Dell'Olio, et al [6].…”

Modelling Parking Choice Behaviour Considering Alternative Availability and Systematic and Random Variations in User Tastes

et al. 2023

Parking choice models proposed over recent years have been aimed at choosing the relevant variables and pricing policies affecting said choice. In our analyses, we have encountered some gaps to cover; for this reason, we introduce a methodology for addressing user parking choices, including the availability of parking alternatives in each of the studied zones presenting pivoted scenarios. This methodology has been developed based on a stated preferences survey design to define user behaviour when making parking choices through discrete-choice models. Furthermore, the estimated models have considered systematic and random variations in user tastes and the correlation between similar or related parking alternatives. This methodology has made it possible to provide greater realism in generating fictitious parking scenarios. The results show the importance of the fee attribute and the differences in the users’ preferences depending on whether they live inside or outside the study area and their arrival time at the destination. Several scenarios have been simulated, and in these scenarios, it is found that removing free parking areas or restricting free parking in favour of parking fee regulation in congested zones can be an efficient policy measure to promote other parking alternatives and reduce the number of vehicles searching for a parking space.
