Donald Shoup, parking guru and UCLA professor, sat with The Open Planning Project‘s Mark Gorton for a recent six-minute interview in New York City touching on Shoup’s book, The High Cost of Free Parking, and how his ideas could benefit the city. From StreetFilms:
According to Dr. Shoup, free parking is the root problem of many of the ills that face our biggest cities. He posits that reforming parking policy will lead to a better pedestrian environment, cleaner streets and air, safer downtown shopping districts, and—yes—even less headaches for drivers trying to find that ever elusive curb space.
