The Potential Impact of Vehicle-to-Vehicle and Sensor-to-Vehicle Communication in Urban Parking

Studies have shown that up to thirty percent of all traffic in crowded urban areas can be cruising for parking. Information provision to drivers can potentially decrease cruising time for individual drivers and subsequently improve the performance of the overall system. While most cities provide drivers with information on the occupancy rates of off-street parking facilities, information on single on-street parking places was non-existing until recently. Recent technological advances have made it possible to provide such information.
