The project goal was to develop a model using simulation software for City of Bozeman Parking Services in the downtown area. The model detailed how parking availability affects the ability of customers and workers to find parking that fits their needs. The model was developed using previously and newly collected data. The model is intended to help the City of Bozeman Parking Services understand how different factors affect patrons’ ability to find parking in a timely manner, identify bottlenecks in the downtown parking system, and communicate to the public why changes may be beneficial.
