Parking Management Strategies <br /> The project has developed a Parking Management Plan to ensure an efficient parking system that is <br /> convenient to both commercial uses and residents as well as to protect residential neighborhoods <br /> from spillover parking. <br /> Shared Parking <br /> Shared parking is the use of parking spaces to serve two or more individual land uses. The ability <br /> to share parking spaces is the result of variations in the accumulation of vehicles by hour and by <br /> day at the individual land uses. A shared parking analysis was conducted for this project and the <br /> results are presented above. <br /> Pedestrian / Bicyclist - The project is located in an area conducive to pedestrian and bicycle <br /> activities. The area surrounding the proposed Varadero project has a comprehensive sidewalk <br /> network, signalized intersections with clearly marked crosswalks, and pedestrian signals. This <br /> environment promotes walking and bicycling as a means of transportation and further reduces the <br /> need for off-street parking. <br /> Transit - The area surrounding the project is served by mass transit. There are approximately 4 <br /> bus routes in the vicinity of the project; in addition to the Sunny Isles Beach Community Shuttle. <br /> The use of mass transit is another effective way to reduce the need for off-street parking. <br /> In addition, there are other parking management strategies that could have a significant impact on <br /> the reduction of off-street parking. The proposed project will consider using the following <br /> strategies to improve the efficiency of the parking areas and reduce the parking demand: <br /> o Provide tandem parking for valet use. <br /> e Encourage businesses to implement commuter trip reduction programs for their employees. <br /> o Provide information to residents, employees and visitors about transit, ridesharing and <br /> bicycle facilities options. <br /> 6IPage <br /> dpa <br /> CORAL GABLES 0 FORT MYERS <br />
