Abstract

Public parking lots are one of the most important infrastructures of the transportation system that play an effective role in reducing traffic and its efficiency and the quality of urban life. In the modern era, due to the increase in cars, the lack of parking space, and the huge cost of parking lot construction, a detailed evaluation for parking management and location becomes necessary. This research is of an applied type, which investigated the feasibility of the location and suitable location of the parking lot in Urmia city using a descriptive and analytical method. With library studies, Its compiled theoretical foundations (urban planning and urban traffic management), to know the scope of the study and investigate the current situation by field method and using detailed and comprehensive plan maps, and the number of deficiencies and the spatial distribution of parking lots have been determined. Public parking per capita has been determined according to the standard of the Ministry of Roads and Urban Development. In order to determine the appropriate limits for the construction of parking, identify the influential criteria in locating and use the Super Decisions software to convert the criteria into information layers and for each of the criteria (layers), the required distances (privacy) have been created. The road network has been modeled in the comprehensive study of transportation and traffic of Urmia city with the VISUM software environment. Considering the effect of each of the layers and their pairwise comparison by Super Decisions software, the weight of each layer was calculated, and the incompatibility rate of pairwise comparisons was obtained as 0.08 and since it was less than 0.1, compatibility these comparisons are acceptable. Finally, by superimposing the layers of information, appropriate ranges are determined and divided into five categories from very poor to very good.
