Study on parking space scale of tourism highway parking area based on queuing theory

Abstract

In order to scientifically determine the scale of parking spaces in tourist highway parking areas, a method for calculating the number of parking spaces in parking areas is established based on queuing theory. Firstly, the calculation method of actual vehicles entering the parking area is proposed, and then the influence of different parameters on parking space demand is studied by using queuing theory. The research results show that the entry rate, design hourly traffic volume coefficient, turnover rate, system loss rate and parking space occupancy rate all have an impact on parking space demand. The higher the entry rate, the greater the design hourly traffic volume coefficient, the smaller the system loss rate and the lower the parking space occupancy rate, the greater the parking space demand. The method of calculating the number of parking spaces in the parking area proposed in this paper is applied to practical projects. The application results show that this method has strong practical value and is helpful to reasonably determine the overall scale of the parking area of tourist roads and intensively use land resources.
