Measuring the Real Cost of Parking and Alternative Transportation Options
Institutions that are growing or are greening their campuses often face significant challenges with respect to parking. Before moving forward with new parking construction, replacing existing parking spaces, or implementing alternative transportation options, institutions must be able to quantify the true costs of parking. Having this data allows you to determine the right mix of transportation options for your campus and make a clear and compelling case to senior administrators.
Join Patrick Siegman and your colleagues to learn how to quantify the true costs of parking and use this data to determine the right mix of transportation options. With a solid understanding of these costs, you will be prepared to make a clear and compelling case to senior administrators for a more cost-effective mix of transportation options on your campus.
