One of the most important aspects of Transportation is lack of Parking policy now a days. The parking issue is trending all around the world especially in central business district (CBD). Parking is an issue at forefront of transportation planning in the core of any urban area. Ahmedabad is one of the largest cities in India which is also affected by the parking problems. Insufficient Off-street parking facilities and tendency to park the vehicle near destination lead to high parking demand. These factors result in reduction of the main carriageway width, decrease in flow speed, increase in vehicular delay and creates unnecessary congestion to traffic flow which creates cruising of parking. Proper Parking management policy should be implemented to control the parking demand. The vehicle ownership and poor quality of transit system are also reasons for increase in demand.
