This report presents the results on potential techniques to more efficiently utilize existing park and ride technologies and plan for future changes to the park and ride facilities. It presents: A summary of parking monitoring and parking guidance systems and recommendations. It includes a cost analysis using three technologies: magnetometer, video image processing and inductive loop detectors for a typical parking installation. A prototype parking information and reservation system through the web and cell phone. It includes a parking reservation algorithm and solution methodology, a web-based parking reservation system and a cell-phone based parking reservation and information system. The establishment of a web and cell phone based parking information and reservation system is recommended as the main technology to efficiently allocate the parking spaces from overcrowded to underutilized park and ride facilities. A prototype Park and Ride intermodal transportation planning model and a case study implementation. This model is recommended to be expanded as a Real-time traffic and park and ride forecasting system to enhance the operations and planning of park and ride facilities.
