Benefits Of The Automated Parking System San Francisco

The benefits of the Automated Parking System San Francisco are twofold: they conserve space and more efficiently utilize the existing parking.

Space conservation occurs because not all cars require dedicated parking spaces. These large, open areas can be used for other purposes, such as landscaping or bicycle racks. In addition, many cities with high population densities need every square inch available for new developments; therefore, these machines can help create additional space in a city’s already crowded landscape.

While on bicycles, automated parking systems also ensure that cyclists will never have to pedal downhill again on their way to work (or wherever else they may be headed). The fully automated designation means that the car is removed from your control – even when you’re on your way to the car. The car is whisked away to its proper location by itself; all you do is step out, punch in your security code, and head on your way.

The storage capacity of automated parking systems also increases efficiency. These multi-story structures can accommodate more cars than traditional lots, which means less space is wasted overall. Unfortunately, this benefit seems almost too good to be true: one multi-story structure can house the same number of cars as seven conventional lots! What’s more, many machines are designed for high-density use (some with capacities up to twice that), so they’re used suboptimally at best.

So, where exactly does this increased efficiency come from? First, since these structures are built vertically rather than horizontally, they use a much smaller footprint. Second, these structures require about 20% of their space for the retrieval system, so every floor has a higher vehicular capacity than a traditional lot with the same footprint would.

The efficiency is increased yet again by the fact that cars don’t have to be driven all over the place from one end of the structure to another. Instead, they are stored close together in vehicle-only zones on each level – eliminating the wasted space between vehicles. Plus, access lanes are reduced because drivers can enter and exit from any level without hitting traffic within the system itself (unlike driveways or parking lots). Also, since there’s no need for extensive car ramps or crosswalks between levels, this design saves even more space.

These structures are also easier to navigate than traditional lots with their one-way traffic and awkward intersections at every crosswalk. Drivers simply enter from the street, drive up a ramp, park in an open spot (if there is one), and go about their business without ever meeting another vehicle along the way.

In addition to saving space, automated Parking System San Francisco can help reduce congestion by decreasing the number of cars on the streets. There’s very little car movement within these structures since drivers almost never leave once they arrive; therefore, streets outside don’t have to accommodate that traffic either. The reduced congestion benefits every other mode of transportation as well: motor vehicles, public transit, bicycles, pedestrians…you name it.
