Service Radius Model and Service Scope Optimization of City Public Parking Garage

الملخص EN

The service radius of public parking garage is related to the supply of parking spots and parking behavior characteristics of drivers.

However, the empirical and statistical methods in the optimization of public parking garage have limitations.

Based on the theory of value engineering and satisfaction, an optimization model for public parking garage service radius is established, which satisfies the requirements of both drivers and owners.

Then, an amended model is proposed by using accessibility theory and the principle of moment balance.

This model, in consideration of city resistance and walking impedance, is modified from the circular service scope to an irregular polygon, which is more suitable for the actual situation.

Finally, the method is verified by a practical example.

The results suggest that the optimization model of the service radius and the optimization method of service scope can not only balance the needs of drivers and public parking garages’ owners, but also improve the operation efficiency of parking garages, so that they are more fit for the actual situation of parking service areas.

This paper provides new ideas and methods to determine public parking garage service radius and service scope.
