I promised I would include a video of my presentation to the Australian Parking Convention here so here it is. Only its me doing it from home and not from the convention.
I have attached a couple of the videos I used as well to give you some perspective and context to what we are trying to achieve in Christchurch.
This video of the devastation of Christchurch is eye opening. http://youtu.be/zFk7KnRALXk
The vision of the new Christchurch gives us some faith that the future is positive, even CERA is starting to understand how important parking is to a city in rebuild mode.
Its simple, parking supports 70% of all activity in a city. To have parking support the rebuild of a city, parking must support 'economic growth or economic activity', to achieve that, parking must aim at full 'utilization' of parking spaces, of which the right fit of a 'modern parking methodology' and a 'modern parking technology' is vital.
Understanding what you have happening in the city is imporatnt. You must be able to monitor the activity before you can respond with prices and restrictions in parking. In Christchurch we develpoed a heat map of the activity.
I hope you all enjoy the video, but be aware its 30 minutes long so make a coffee to view it.
Happy holidays.
