Research and advice on parking demand, available space and mobility for your municipality, area or location.
Residents struggle to find parking, an organisation has spare capacity at one site and a shortage at another, or a building proposal needs supporting parking analysis. Omega investigates demand for car and cycle parking and the use of existing facilities.
Omega compares demand and capacity, carries out parking occupancy surveys and investigates options such as shared use, shared mobility and hubs. You gain an understanding of the options and the conditions for their use. The findings can support policy, a planning application or improvements at an existing location.

Groningen
Omega supports the parking and mobility strategy for Stadshavens West, from the parking demand and supply assessment and mobility plan through to preparation for the sale and operation of the first parking hub.
NDSM A7-2 Ontwikkel B.V.
Amsterdam
Omega substantiated the parking and mobility requirements for NDSM A7-2, with demand and supply assessments for cars, bicycles and scooters and a review of the garage design.
HSB De Vijverhof B.V.
Capelle aan den IJssel
An extensive parking occupancy survey on the grounds of De Vijverhof and in surrounding streets, in conjunction with the parking and mobility assessment for Vijverhof NEXT.
We determine demand by use and user group, available capacity and usage at different times. This shows whether supply meets demand and where shared use is possible.
We investigate which standards and policy flexibility apply to your location. Accessibility, housing segments and mobility profiles help provide a careful justification of parking demand.
Our parking occupancy surveys establish how existing spaces are used at different times. We define the survey area and appropriate survey periods in advance. The results help assess bottlenecks and available space, for example when introducing a new use into an existing neighbourhood.
We work out how walking, cycling, public transport and shared mobility fit the way the location is used. We assess the implications for parking demand and the facilities required.
We investigate the configuration of a hub for cars, bicycles and shared vehicles. Spatial layout, user needs, management and operation are considered together so that decisions can be developed into practical solutions.
We agree assumptions with your project team, compare options and incorporate feedback from the municipality and other stakeholders. The parking demand and supply assessment and our advice evolve with the plan, with clear choices on layout, use and management.
At WDevelop, we believe good collaboration matters throughout the development process. At De Star, Omega helped us find an appropriate balance between parking, mobility and the municipality's ambitions for shared mobility.
Omega's flexibility, technical knowledge and pragmatic approach produced solutions that meet the project's needs.
