2.5      Parking Demand

Parking occupancy surveys were carried out on Tuesday 3rd March 2020 to determine
the parking demand at the college. Survey areas are shown in Figure 6. Occupancy
was recorded every 10 minutes between 7:00am and 9:00am and also between
2:30am and 4:00pm with surveys between 9:00am and 2:30pm and 4:00pm and
4:30pm recorded in 15 minute intervals. The Pre‐prep provides childcare has approval
under separate conditions and has therefore been excluded from the results. A
summary of the peak demand for parking across all zones in provided in Table 4.
