Introducing a practical tool designed for professionals committed to refining parking solutions in their cities – presenting the “Parking Game.”
The Origin
Built upon the groundwork of Urban Transport Researcher and Policy Adviser Paul Barter, the ‘Parking Game’ is a hands-on simulation designed to optimise parking dynamics within urban landscapes. It enables participants to use simulations that mirror real-world parking challenges and solutions. Although it can be played online over Zoom calls using a presentation, it is best played in a physical setting/in-person.
Navigating Urban Challenges
As a comprehensive training and planning tool, the “Parking Game” enables participants to engage in simulations mirroring real-world parking challenges and solutions. This may motivate them to make decisions that directly impact parking management efficiency.
