Observed peak parking demand rates by land use, setting (urban/suburban), and time.

Why: the standalone-demand leg of the parking triad (code vs ITE vs ULI vs observed); justifies reductions when code overshoots.

When:

  • parking studies
  • variance support
  • checking a code ratio against data

Example questions:

  • 85th-percentile vs average rate — which does the agency accept?
  • weekday vs weekend peak for this LU?
