Here, we are launching The Parking Reforms Report, which can become a roadmap to solving parking woes. bit.ly/3TZ7MLE Findings say people are: 1. Ready to pay for parking 2. Ready to pay more for parking than now 3. Ready to walk for off-street parking
Our weekly newsletter is in your inbox: we're working on plans to continue to grow our advocacy, come join us at Singlespeed Brewing this evening to talk about how we can build a better Des Moines! mailchi.mp/33e32bc2936c/m…
Need proof that parking mandates constrain housing options? Nice graphs in this piece illustrating the decline in parking spaces per new housing unit in Minneapolis following citywide parking reform.

We need to build millions of new homes to tackle the housing crisis. We won't be able to accomplish this if parking mandates keep forcing our cities to build excessive amounts of parking.
How does parking policy impact urban mobility? At this year's SXSW, we talked to Tony Jordan from the Parking Reform Network on the importance of relevant parking regulations, and the investment in public transit and other forms of mobility 👇 #OWForum #SXSW2024 #UrbanMobility
Dr. Donald Shoup, the esteemed author of "The High Cost of Free Parking," will appear at Manhattan Community Board 7's Transportation Committee meeting this Tuesday, 4/9 (via Zoom). mcb7.org
It’s true!
The book says the city will propose an ordinance to eliminate parking mandates citywide. 👍👍👍👍
Saying yes to abolishing costly parking mandates is the first step in saying yes to a more affordable housing market! If you live in the region, be sure to join the rally!

@Parking_Reform it was an unserious reply but also abolishing parking minimums is pointless if developers are still gonna build towers of parking garages like in austin and and la

Parking mandates and 2 stair requirements are what make small projects impossible. Clear those away and most sites suddenly become buildable.
"For years the owner wanted to develop, but couldn’t because of parking requirements & no space to get underground. Once parking was not required, only by using single-stair, could we do the building" - common refrain that I hear from architects of Seattle single-stair projects
@Parking_Reform @dpherriges That's a good match, nice work!
So excited to get to announce this news!
Exciting announcement 🚨 We are thrilled to welcome Daniel Herriges @dpherriges as our new Policy Director!
@SStonnington Valuable data. @Parking_Reform
It's a sad map, but it should also be a map that strengthens our resolve as a city to make better use of our transit-adjacent land in the future.

My wife & I on our honeymoon were constantly commenting on how much more vibrant the downtown would’ve been if there were 4 or more levels of housing above every parking space. Had to walk across a lot of parking lots to get to our destinations.
Carrboro / Chapel Hill? 37%!

The French government is currently in the process of drafting legislation to help cities across the country transition away from what they call "ugly France". A big part of that transition involves re-purposing the excessive parking lots dotting most suburban areas.
@TernerHousing @zack_subin I just learned of @Parking_Reform's Parking Lot Map and it seems like such a good companion to this data, but what is missing from it is the impact of dedicating the first floor of new apartment buildings to parking. parkingreform.org/resources/park…

2. not really something the fed govt did, but there is a call-out box with long list of YIMBY housing wins across state/local regions to improve housing supply. (congrats to @Parking_Reform for the shout-out!)
Parking reform is for everyone! 👏👏👏
The politics around abolishing parking mandates is bizarre. While the Pacific NW's biggest city wants to micromanage three parking spots for every corner store, a historic waterfront town of 10k opts to get rid of all off-street mandates everywhere. theurbanist.org/2024/03/14/por…
