Donald Shoup, UCLA Department of Urban Planning Professor and author of The High Cost of Free Parking, will speak February 24 about the critical reasons cities need to change their parking policies.
In The High Cost of Free Parking, Donald Shoup argues that parking policies distort transportation choices, debase urban design, damage the economy, and degrade the environment. He also proposes reforms designed to undo the damage caused by a century of bad planning for parking. Some cities have already begun to adopt these reforms.
