Provo Preliminary Parking Standard Survey

By on February 5th, 2010

The purpose of this brief study was to provide the city with relevant data to assist them in determining a relevant parking standard for future proposed apartment complexes in the Joaquin neighborhood.

The following graph shows the percentage of student who have cars in Provo that live at several complexes that we believe are representative of complexes that may be proposed in the future. You will notice that the black line shows that on average, 88.5% of students living in these types of complexes own a car.  We hope that this data and other data contained in our report will assist the city in addressing the long term parking issues south of campus.

The other results of the survey are given in the written report presented to the city.  A copy of that report can be obtained here.
