Development of information network system for P&R promotion
This paper discusses a methodology to promote use of park and ride (P&R) by utilizing common car navigation systems in Japan. First, it is discussed that sufficient information is not always provided by car navigation system, which has the most influence on drivers, regardless of the importance of various information provisions to encourage a shift in drivers' automobile choice behaviour for P&R promotion. Second, the required information for P&R use promotion is identified by exploring a precise picture of parking utilization in inner-city district and examining a possibility of change-over to P&R through survey taken from inner-city parking users. Finally, as a solution to the issues mentioned above, a P&R Information Network System is developed by connecting car navigation systems and existing information provision systems.
