PARKING POLICY, TRANSPORTATION DEMAND MANAGEMENT, AND HOV FACILITIES SUPPORT. FIFTH NATIONAL HIGH-OCCUPANCY VEHICLE (HOV) FACILITIES CONFERENCE, HOV FACILITIES--COMING OF AGE, CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS, APRIL 28 - MAY 1, 1991, SEATTLE, WASHINGTON

The focus of this paper is on "commuter parking" and its relationship to HOV facilities. Following a brief introduction, the problem of "free" commuter parking is discussed, along with the evidence that changing the provision of subsidized parking can have a major impact on commute trip-making. Alternative policy initiatives that are and can be pursued are then presented, followed by a discussion of some of the challenges involved in implementing those policies.
