These factors include total parking supply relative to total demand, the allocation of parking supply relative to the demand for specific parking products, airport operator policies pertaining to providing and operating parking facilities, the availability of alternatives to driving and parking at the airport for both airline passengers and airport employees, and external policies affecting the airport. The types of constrained parking, causes of constrained parking, and related consequences are discussed in this chapter.

• External policies and regulations related to land use, airline passenger vehicle trip reduction, employee trip reduction, and other issues may limit the ability of an airport operator or private off-airport operator to expand the parking supply. For example, an externally enacted policy may restrict airport parking to encourage the use of public transportation; however, this policy may result in a parking constraint if the public transportation system does not offer the level of service or geographic coverage necessary to serve the airport's parking customers.

For example, parking rates for all parking products may be low in comparison to alternative ground access modes, which might result in a high proportion of airline passengers choosing to park rather than use alternative modes of ground access. • Changes in airline service directly affect public parking demand.

From page 19... ...
Parking customers may choose to use alternative modes or privately operated parking facilities in the future, even during periods when parking at the airport is not constrained, which translates to lost parking revenue for the airport operator. Airport Roadway Traffic Congestion Airline passengers who would typically choose to park their vehicles may choose another mode to access the airport if they anticipate constrained airport parking.

From page 20... ...
Potential Diversion to Other Airports Data from the stated preference survey conducted as part of this research project indicate that constrained parking is not a primary reason for airline passengers choosing one airport over another in an airport system. The primary reasons airline passengers choose one airport over another in a competing airport system are the availability of direct flights to a desired destination, the price of airline tickets, and flight travel time.
