ABSTRACT

Parking charges are considered to be a powerful tool for managing transport demand, as parking price is one of the most important factors impacting the travel decision-making process. This paper examines and quantifies the parking price impact on parking demand due to an increase in initial parking price as well as due to the real price decrease (inflation-adjusted) over time. Revealed preference data were collected for a parking garage located in central Belgrade at three different times: before the price increase, after the price increase and after a certain period of time had passed since the price was increased. The results confirm that parking price impacts demand. However, initial price changes have become less effective in managing demand over time. Although such a pattern is typical and expected, its quantification could be of great importance when defining parking prices and predicting impacts of new prices, as well as in determining the periodicity of price changes in order to maintain desired parking occupancy levels.

摘要

停车收费被认为是管理运输需求的有力工具，因为停车价格是影响旅行决策过程的最重要因素之一。本文研究并量化了由于初始停车价格的上涨以及随着时间的推移实际价格下降（通货膨胀调整后）而导致的停车价格对停车需求的影响。在三个不同的时间收集了位于贝尔格莱德市中心的一个停车场的显示的偏好数据：价格上涨之前，价格上涨之后以及价格上涨之后的一段时间之后。结果证实，停车价格会影响需求。但是，随着时间的流逝，最初的价格变化在管理需求方面变得不太有效。尽管这种模式是典型的和预期的，
