Projects and planning

Parking is part of San Francisco’s transportation system, and how the SFMTA manages parking affects the overall success of that system. Good parking management helps create parking availability, thereby making it easier to park, reducing congestion and illegal parking, improving Muni’s speed and reliability, and increasing public safety and economic vitality.

The SFpark project uses best-practice parking management approaches and technology to manage the City’s parking supply to help achieve overall goals for the transportation system.

Neighborhood parking planning is currently underway (December 2012) for the Northeast Mission, with Potrero Hill, Dogpatch, and Western SoMa projects expected to be restarted in Spring and Summer 2013 -- learn more about neighborhood parking planning here.
