Summary

Many, if not all, transit agencies have parking facilities, policies, management, and related activities. Parking tends to be a complicated and contentious topic for transit agencies trying to accommodate existing customers, to ensure safe access to transit for all, and to use adjacent land efficiently to build transit-oriented development (TOD). This Recommended Practice includes a series of separate topic discussions on the main aspects of parking and TOD.
