Major cities are expanding by placing more emphasis on mixed-use buildings. These buildings combine different user flows that use the same parking spaces at different times. With the right insights, you can put away your parking spaces more often and let tenants exchange parking spaces among themselves. As a result, you get more out of your parking lot and you have less to worry about parking management.
Major cities are expanding by expanding
In the coming years, large and medium-sized municipalities will grow in population. These municipalities are increasingly expanding their housing stock within existing buildings. This form of expansion is called expansion; inner-city (re) development. The new homes are increasingly being combined with other functions such as working and recreation. In 1 building, you can then live and work as well as relax.
Mixed-use buildings in major cities
We mainly see these mixed-use buildings in large cities because space is limited. Instead of separate area development for a residential building and a commercial building, the functions are combined so that less space is needed for both functions.
Extra parking spaces required
This form of dealing sustainably with limited space raises questions for developers about the use of the common space. Before the building is put into use, tenants are already asking for additional parking spaces. The municipalities set requirements with regard to the maximum number of parking spaces. After all, municipalities want to make inner cities car-free; companies and residents want to be as accessible as possible.
Get insight into parking behavior
Tenants want to be sure of sufficient parking spaces for their employees and residents. As a property owner or manager, it is important to gain insight into the end user's parking behavior. With these insights, you can allocate parking spaces to tenants based on data.
Have parking spaces interchanged
In addition, with these insights, you can let tenants exchange parking spaces among themselves. Data shows that at certain times fewer parking spaces are in use by tenant A, so that those excess parking spaces can be reserved by tenant B. This way, you always have the highest possible occupancy rate of your parking lot.
45 parking spaces for 170 parkers
In Vienna, Austria, we helped the Canetti tower improve their car park. There was always a shortage of parking spaces, causing a lot of irritation every day and tenants spending a lot of time managing parking. With Toogethr Parking, employees of the various tenants can reserve a parking space. The tenants themselves have insight into who parks when. Thanks to the improved use of the car park based on data, 170 employees can now park with 45 parking spaces, and €2300 are saved each month.
More efficiency with Toogethr Parking
Ensure higher returns, offer tenants flexibility and let tenants manage their parking spaces themselves with Toogethr Parking. At any time, as a property owner or manager, you have insight into the occupancy, based on which you can set aside additional parking spaces.
