  1. Presented by: DDOT-Office of the Director Terry L. Bellamy Intelligent Parking Management:CityWide Metered Parking Modernization Program and Downtown Virtual Park Washington, DC March 31, 2011

  2. Background and Recommendations 1 • Pre-2008: All meters were installed in the late 1990s • Meter Conditions and Complaints • As operability decreased over the years, complaints rose • Maintenance and collection systems used different handhelds and computer systems • DDOT faced an unusable meter inventory • Research and Recommendations • Parking technology – Request for Information (RFI) • Reviewed nationwide meter deployment • Performed extensive field tests of new technology • September 2007: Multi-space meter pilot/ Mayor and City Council directed DDOT to conduct multi-space meter pilot District Department of Transportation

  3. New Meter Technology 2 • 2007-2009 Pilot Program Elements • Pay Stations • Standard Single-space Meters • Enhanced Single-space Meters • Key Lessons Learned • Credit card capability is extremely valuable • Public desires cell phone payment capability • Real-time maintenance alerts and electronic payment options will improve revenue 15-20% • 2010: New Technology and Rates • Central Management System and Parking • New Meter Inventory • New Meter Rates and Hours District Department of Transportation

  4. Setting Priorities and Goals 3 • Based on background, recommendations, and New Meter Technology Pilot, the following priority and goals were set. • Priority:Modernize Citywide meter parking program • Goals: • Upgrade District’s metered parking spaces • Improve Downtown metered parking spaces • Obtain Federally-funded demonstration project • Create an intelligent parking management system District Department of Transportation

  5. Next Step - Procurement 4 • Procurement may include two RFPs – Citywide metered parking modernization program and Smart Park. When completed, all of the District’s metered parking spaces will incorporate the most current, proven technology. • Procurement Considerations • Benefits of a single RFP for the Citywide Procurement, including Smart Park • Assures compatibility of all system elements • Once contractor is accountable for the entire Parking Management System • Risks associated with a single RFP • Adds Federal requirements to the Citywide procurement • Increases the probability of schedule slippage and possible loss of Federal funds District Department of Transportation

  6. Citywide RFP Project Scope 5 • What should the RFP include? • Considerations • Recommendations for upgrading the District’s parking meter spaces – approximately 18,000 • Implementing sensor technology to gather real time parking data for high demand meter spaces • Processing all meter data and vehicle sensor data into a single management system • Integrating with Smart Park, an intelligent parking management system for Downtown DC District Department of Transportation

  7. Parking Management System 6 District Department of Transportation

  8. Parking Meters in the District 7 • Standard Single Meter • Accepts coins and parking card • Off-line data retrieval during collection • Enhanced Single Space Meters • Accepts credit card and pay by phone payment options • Meter status reported on a real time basis • Pay Stations for multiple spaces • Same features as enhanced single space meters • Best option for lots and angled parking District Department of Transportation

  9. Sensor Technology 8 • How will sensors improve Meter Parking in the District? • Data • Will provide real time occupancy data to the parking management system • Will improve accounting, collection, and auditing • Meter Policies • Meter Maintenance • Parking Enforcement District Department of Transportation

  10. Smart Park Integration 9 • Smart Park = an intelligent parking management system for Downtown DC, which includes 5,500 on-street metered parking spaces. • Project Elements • New Parking Meter Technology • Vehicle sensors built into parking meters (Due to inclimate weather, in-ground sensors are not recommended.) • Data processing to recommend new meter policies, hours of operation, hourly rates, and time limits. • Real time parking guidance system • Project Schedule • DDOT anticipates that the Smart Park system will be operational before the Citywide parking management system is complete. • Notice to proceed milestone – May 15, 2011 • Smart Park must be fully operational by December 31, 2010 District Department of Transportation

  11. District Architecture Workshop 10 • Reviewed drafts of customized ITS Services and made extensive markups (e.g. Parking Management District Department of Transportation

  12. Architecture Updates Underway 11 DDOT is developing a complete draft of customized services, based on inputs from the workshop. District Department of Transportation
