The earlier version involved the collection of data and review of certain aspects of parking and terminal problems as they existed in urban areas. "Parking" is a revision adding newer information and references on more recent (relatively) surveys and investigations and covers the most important aspects of parking demands, practices, and treatments. Chapters are devoted to defining the parking problem, parking characteristics, curb parking, off-street parking, rural highways, and enforcement. A variety of data is presented in tabular and graphical formats.97
