Car Parking Demand Assessments

Car Parking Demand Assessments

Assessment of car parking provision and demand for planning applications and development projects across Australia.

Mobiq Transport prepares car parking demand assessments for proposed developments, changes of use and other projects where the adequacy of on-site parking needs to be demonstrated.

The scope of the assessment is based on the applicable planning requirements, the proposed use, site context and the expected parking demand generated by the development.

What a Car Parking Demand Assessment Covers

Depending on the project, an assessment may address:

  • statutory or policy-based car parking requirements

  • proposed on-site parking provision

  • expected parking demand generated by the development

  • existing parking conditions in the surrounding area

  • availability and use of on-street or public parking

  • parking surveys, where required

  • accessibility by public transport, walking and cycling

  • shared parking between different uses

  • operational characteristics of the proposed use

  • justification for any proposed parking shortfall

The level of assessment is tailored to the project and the requirements of the relevant planning authority.

Planning and Authority Requirements

A car parking demand assessment may be required where the proposed parking provision is below a statutory or policy requirement, where parking demand is likely to be a key assessment issue, or where additional information has been requested by the relevant authority.

Requirements vary between jurisdictions. The appropriate methodology can be confirmed following review of the development plans, applicable planning controls and any authority correspondence.
