Parking Configuration & Traffic Pattern Consulting

Convenience to destinations
Entrance/Exit Locations
Amount of parking to be supplied – Now/Future
Self-Park and valet operations
Footprint of deck/lot in relation to site; how many levels?
Standard/Small car ratios; provision for future electric vehicles
Adjacent street traffic volumes & direction
Stairs, elevators & pedestrian walkways
Ability of streets to absorb traffic esp. during special events
Visibility from streets; garage aesthetics; signage
Clear span construction for visibility and security (no hiding places)
Elastomeric sealants and waterproof membranes
Glass enclosed stairwells and elevators
Signs & Graphics for vehicular and pedestrian wayfinding
Traffic flow within the deck, aisle width, lane configuration, driveways, minimize waiting time within the structure
Parking stall geometry and striping to maximize space efficiency
Parking equipment procurement and maintenance considerations (gates, ticket machines, card access controls, cash registers, loops, detectors, space-counters, signs)
High density concrete, epoxy coated re-bar to inhibit spalls
Slope and drainage on all floors; water supply for cleaning
Exposed electrical conduits
