摘要：AbstractThis paper describes a study of car drivers’ familiarity with the parking situation in the vicinity of a regional shopping centre. The data used for this study is collected in Veghel, a small city in The Netherlands. The main shopping area of Veghel is surrounded by 13 parking facilities. Residents are asked to indicate if they are familiar with each parking facility. This familiarity is related to various attributes of the resident, the trips they make to the shopping centre and the parking facilities using binary logistic regression analysis. The model analysis show that the probability of being familiar with a parking facility depends on various attributes of the car driver (gender, age, education, and home location), shopping trip (visit frequency and travel mode), and parking facility (chance of free parking space, parking costs, available driving space, walking distance to supermarket).
