The study has looked at a range of existing research from within the UK and Europe and highlighted several common themes which came from the conclusions of these studies. These were that:
♦ Parking is a very important demand management tool;
♦ Developers see parking as important as they consider that it adds value to their asset;
and
♦ There is no evidence to suggest that parking standards have a significant negative impact on economic development within urban and rural areas.
