abstract="<p>Parking and terminal facilities in urban areas include: (1) curb spaces along the existing street system, (2) off-street facilities such as public and private parking lots and garages, (3) parking facilities within commercial buildings for autos and trucks, ranging from recessed street level truck tailboard spaces within building lines to large areas below or above street floors, connected by ramps or elevators, and (4) such specialized terminals as union bus and truck terminals. As more urban expressways are constructed and areas tributary to expressways expand, increasing proportions of vehicles parking at individual parking and terminal facilities will arrive or depart via expressways. This growing intimacy between expressways and large individual parking and terminal facilities is predicted to create serious traffic problems, particularly in the vicinity of traffic interchanges. This problem is analyzed to attempt to maintain a proper balance in the capacities of: (1) the expressway, (2) its local interchanges, (3) the local traffic light controlled street system in the vicinity of interchanges, and (4) the rate of absorption or delivery of vehicles by local off-street parking and terminal facilities.</p>",
