Parking in a Big City
INTRODUCTION
Nowadays in our cities. . .
There is a larger number of vehicles in the streets
Finding an available parking space is hard
Time and Fuel are wasted in finding a free space
Tons of greenhouse gases are emitted to the
atmosphere
The citizens’ quality of life is decreasing
