Reducing Congestion through Smart Parking Management

SFpark is a project being implemented with federal Urban Partnership Program funds. It combines

innovative technologies and strategies to redistribute the demand for parking in real-time. Goals include making parking easier, reducing congestion (by reducing circling and double parking), improving bus speed and reliability, and transferring lessons learned to other cities. innovative technologies and strategies to redistribute the demand for parking in real-time.
