摘要：	Walker Consultants' Mobility and Parking Planning, Operations, and Technology Practice; This article summarizes the residential Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) parking minimums and maximums stipulated within the zoning ordinances of the core city of the 40 largest U.S. metropolitan areas and presents TOD parking generation data. The purpose is to aggregate this information and provide a broader view of parking standards nationwide, assisting developers and planners in right-sizing residential TOD parking. The key finding of a comprehensive zoning ordinance review is that a reduction in parking minimums for residential TOD developments has been acknowledged by a majority of the largest U.S. cities and this is now a contemporary standard and practice. This study finds 28 of the 40 cities, or 70 percent, have multi-family residential TOD parking requirements that are less than 1.0 parking space per residential dwelling unit (DU). Thirty-three of the 40 cities were identified as either not having a multi-family residential parking minimum or offering a reduction for proximity to transit. At least two of the seven cities excluded from the list of 33-Atlanta, GA, USA and St. Louis, MO, USA-have been engaged in discussions that would amend the parking minimums section of their ordinances or allow for a residential TOD parking reduction. A literature review was performed concurrent with the zoning ordinance review in order to establish typical parking demand rates. This exercise produced fifteen parking generation studies representing more than 95,000 multi-family residential TOD bedrooms located throughout the United States. The estimated weighted average number of parked cars per bedroom for the residential TOD properties surveyed is 0.49, or alternately, 0.67 at the 85th percentile, both of which are significantly lower ratios than developers commonly used for suburban, automobile-dependent residential properties.
