SOME THOUGHTS ABOUT THE FUNCTIONING OF URBAN OFF-STREET MOTOR VEHICLE TERMINALS

THE COMMUNITY OF INTERESTS TO BE CONSIDERED IN RELATION TO THE FUNCTIONING OF TERMINALS IS STRESSED, AND THEY ARE DETAILED UNDER FIVE PRINCIPAL HEADINGS: (1) THE CITY AS A WHOLE; (2) THE DOWNTOWN BUSINESS, STORE, BANK, THEATRE, ETC; (3) MASS TRANSPORTATION FACILITIES; (4) PARKERS OF AUTOMOBILES; (5) PRIVATE PARKING ENTERPRISE. AS EXAMPLES OF THE STRAIGHT-FORWARD APPROACH TO THE SOLUTION OF THE URBAN PARKING TERMINAL PROBLEM, THE PAPER CONTEMPLATES THE USE OF MUNICIPAL CREDIT TO GET CHEAP MONEY, AND THE TAKING OF PROPERTY FOR TERMINALS BY CONDEMNATION. /AUTHOR/
