Engineers did the math"},"content":{"rendered":"\n

You\u2019re driving slowly along a street, looking for a place to park. You come across a long stretch of parallel parking. But to your frustration, the spaces left by other people\u2019s parking efforts are not quite long enough for you to fit. The search continues.<\/p>\n

Drawn from our own frustrating experiences with parking, we decided to answer the question once and for all \u2013 what\u2019s the best way to parallel park your car? Our research<\/a> has found a simple answer.<\/p>\n

You should always park at one end of a parking space, leaving as big a space as possible at the other end. It doesn\u2019t matter which end \u2013 just remember to leave yourself room to get out. While this might sound obvious, a quick look at the street outside your home will show many drivers think parking in the middle of the space is best \u2013 or just don\u2019t give it much thought at all.<\/p>\n

Optimizing how we park our cars in cities matters, because free parking spaces are, by their nature, a limited resource. We\u2019ve taken to our cars with a vengeance as the world slowly reemerges from lockdowns. Mobility data<\/a> shows our cities are coming back to life, with our travel behaviors changing in turn.<\/p>\n

Even though many of us are still working from home<\/a>, those of us commuting are reluctant to return to public transport<\/a>. You\u2019ll have already noticed the result based on traffic. The number of cars on the roads of Australian cities has already met or gone past pre-COVID numbers, and so too the parking demand.<\/p>\n
