Parking Studies

​

As current developments change, parking space accommodations must be analyzed and improved upon if necessary. ATE has participated and assisted in many parking studies that analyze the capacity and use of existing facilities. Future parking demand, as well as appropriate space accommodations are reported and recommended.  

​​

Parking Management Plan Thousand Oaks Boulevard - Thousand Oaks, California
ATE worked with the City’s Specific Plan to create a Parking Management Plan that utilized current parking spaces and facilities, determined types and time limits for various parking spaces, identified new public parking facilities, developed new parking policies and enforcement actions, and assisted in the preliminary design of a new public parking directional sign system.

Westlake Office Building Parking Study - Westlake, California
The parking analysis for the Westlake Office Building assessed the parking requirements associated with adding tenants to the building, and if those requirements could be accommodated using the current amount of spaces. ATE utilized the City’s Zoning Ordinance as well as empirical parking demand data.

ATE has experience with closed loop design, video detection, signal phasing, signal warrant analysis, and controller systems.

​

Heritage Valley Parkway - Fillmore, California​

A traffic signal installation plan was designed for Phase 2 of the Heritage Valley Parkway housing development in Fillmore. Special considerations were made for the close proximity of the intersection and nearby railroad tracks. ATE also prepared a traffic report that addressed the projected traffic volumes for the intersection to determine the traffic impact of the signal design and implementation.

Union Valley Parkway - Santa Maria, California

Traffic signal modification plans were prepared for multiple intersections along a major arterial roadway in Santa Maria. The comprehensive nature of this project required street light and pavement delineation plans, as well as traffic control plans for single phase construction.
