Parking policy of the municipality, Grand-Saconnex
Faced with recurring parking problems, the municipality of Grand-Saconnex wishes to have a comprehensive study to objectify and orient its parking policy throughout the municipality. The study has two objectives: to quantify/qualify the use of public places to identify dysfunctions and to propose management measures to correct them according to the objectives set. The diagnosis was carried out using a socio-economic analysis, making it possible to define seven sectors of different use and/or density. The analysis of parking supply and demand was carried out in order to be able to set objectives and define a public parking management policy.
