According to the “Building construction act, 1996” parking space will have to be at least 23 square meters for each 300 square meters of the total building area (Source: Housing and public work ministry, 1996).
So, Theoretically sufficient parking space is available in Lab-aid hospital.

EXPECTED NUMBERS OF VEHICLE TO BE PARKEDX=
Number of available parking space*survey period (in hour)*.85
Average parking duration (in hour)
(265*8*.85)
(.91) =
= 1980 vehicle
Here, X = Expected number of vehicle parked (off-street) within 8 hours.(Source: Akter, 2013)
Total number of vehicles by patrol usage survey = 429 vehicles (Source: field survey, 2014)
Difference from existing condition= (1980 - 429) vehicles = 1551 vehicles.
The existing supply of designated off – street parking space is adequate
to meet the demand of off- street parking. This is due to the very short
average parking duration.

PARKING DEMAND – SUPPLY RATIOParking provision Total parked vehicle Average duration of
parking (in hours)
Parking load(vehicle-
hour)
Off-street 429 .91 390.39
On-street 421 .91 383.11
Total 773 vehicle-hour
Traffic load (Vehicle - hour) = [Total number of vehicles parked * average parking duration ] (Source: UIdaho, 2013 )
Table: Parking demand calculation
The available parking spaces (designated off- street parking space) =265
Parking capacity (supply parameter) = 265*.91 = 241 vehicle space-hour
Demand- supply ratio= 773/241 = 3.21
So the only existing designated off street parking is not adequate enough to meet the total demand of parking.

The available parking space is not adequate to meet the current demand of parking
As the demand supply ratio is high average parking duration for each vehicle can be shortened to cope with the existing demand.

Total parking volume (in 8 hours) = 850 vehicle
Average volume of vehicular parking is 106.25/hour.
That means on an average in every hour 106 new vehicles come into this hospital.
Parking turnover = (total parked vehicle/ Total parking space available)
= (429/265)
= 1.62 vehicle per space
This turnover figure represents that available parking spaces are not used efficiently.

Almost one lane is covered by the on street parking
If on street parking prohibited then Volume-capacity ratio reduces around 40%. That means, capacity of the road increases.

12' per lane width and a capacity of 1400 PCUs/hr for each lane is assumed for
the calculation of volume-capacity ratio (DITS, 1994).Fig: Calculation of volume- capacity ratio

Instead of high demand, there is no provision of parking charge system.
Parking load and parking demand exceeds the parking supply.
Average duration for off street parking is high during day time .
Most of the time there are two rows vehicle parked.
Although Labaid have sufficient amount of parking provision, people
feel reluctant to use parking by paying parking charge.
Parking turnover is 1.62 that means, one parking space is used by
around 2 vehicles.
MAJOR FINDINGS
Thursday, 09 February 2017
24
On-Street parking should be banned and encourage of off-street parking
provision.
Parking bays should be provided in the underground .
Create new system or organization for managing “current parking assets.”
Off street parking charge should be low .
Increased on-street parking charge to encourage people from parking on
street.
Additional access parking can be provided to reduce entering problem.
Parking area should be improved in terms of ventilation and maintenance.
