This document discusses different types of parking studies and parking facilities. It introduces the need for parking provisions in areas with high business, residential, or commercial activity. There are two main types of parking facilities: on-street parking alongside roads and off-street parking in lots or garages. On-street parking can be unrestricted or restricted by time limits, and there are different angled parking configurations. Off-street parking includes surface lots, multi-level garages, roof parks, mechanical parks, and underground lots owned privately or publicly.
