Parking supply analysis in the Municipality of Piacenza in a medium-long term perspective
The Municipality of Piacenza committed TRT Trasporti e Territorio for an analysis of the current parking supply and its evolution in the medium-long time frame in relation to the transformations that will affect the Municipality in the next 10 years future.
The study was carried out according to the actions that the Municipality of Piacenza has developed recently, through an important revision of the mobility planning tools. Parking policies are of particular importance and may influence the entire mobility pattern of the city. In fact, last December 2020 the Municipal Council approved the Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan (SUMP) and the Urban Traffic Plan (the Italian so called “PUT” Piano Urbano del Traffico) is currently waiting for its adoption.
The city’s parking supply is always evolving, also according to the urban planning development and the accessibility of new areas that have recently become available. It is therefore of particular importance to monitor the evolution of the parking supply analysing in detail the changes that may undergo according to the measures, strategies and choices of the city’s urban plans.
Analyses have shown that the areas related to the development of the New Hospital, the Ex-ACNA area, the Ex-Laboratorio Pontieri and the Ex-Mercato Ortofrutticolo would lead to an increase of about 2,100-2,300 parking spaces available in the historical centre for a total of an increase by 31%-34%.
