Adam complains about parking at least three time a day. He is late to economics class every Tuesday and Thursday, and Professor Willis simply cannot take it anymore. Professor Willis told Adam that he needs to wake up earlier in order to get a spot on campus, but sleep is vital to all college students. Sleep should not be compensated for the time to find parking. Adelphi should instead listen to the proposal in this essay, which deals with the plan of action to create more parking spots on campus. Spots are limited, and Adam is not alone. There is a large number of people who have a problem finding a parking spot. Parking is the number one problem on campus for both residents and commuters and a solution is needed. Adelphi has the money and power to create more parking spots on campus by extending both of the underground parking lots. The benefits of extending the underground parking lots will allow for Adelphi to cut down on their shuttle service, permit all students to park on campus, and for less accidents to occur. Some argue that the extension of both underground parking lots will cost a lot of money, and they are not wrong. It will cost millions of dollars to renovate both parking lots, but the benefits will most certainly outweigh the costs and save money for the university in the long run. Extending the parking lots will require materials, workers, and require for certain parts of the campus to be shut down. This will of course create major chaos during the time
The advantages listed provided two main advantages to the University City area, those advantages include: a decrease in travel time and traffic congestion relief (Lovelace 1952, 2-3). Consequently, the expressway would have created six major disadvantages to University City (Lovelace 1952, 3). The disadvantages include: depreciating the nearby residential area greatly, depreciate the Delmar business district, local traffic issues, unreasonable costs, removal of the street car system in University city and increase traffic complications in downtown St. Louis” (Lovelace 1952,
If a parking lot was built more people would be able to attend. The parking lots at Concordia have very limited space. A lot of students cannot find spaces to park during the day. Therefore, they are unsatisfied all day long. Future students who own their car will doubt about choosing Concordia. The more parking spots allow more students to attend the school. As a result, building a parking
I highly encourage you to expand the narrow sidewalk running from 3rd Ave. /W. Century Blvd. to 5th Ave./ West Century Blvd. The sidewalk poses a serious threat to walking pedestrians that use the sidewalk to commute everyday to access the shops down at Crenshaw Blvd./ W. Century Blvd. and other little businesses up the street from S. Van Ness Ave./ W. Century
Have you ever been late to a class because of parking? Have you ever had to show up hours before class just to become that creep that follows people around trying to find a space to park? Or even late to work because of the lack of parking? I know I have at Wright State University. There is such limited parking for commuter students and causes safety problems for the students on campus. Parking shouldn’t be just another stress in a college students life, we should be able to come to school knowing that they we make it to class on time because we will have access to a parking spot. When you live on campus it should be you “home away from home” and you should be able to feel safe.
Every day I enter the school parking lot around 7:30 am, thirty minutes before school has started. Quickly, I travel down each lane at the stadium to be let down because the parking lot is one-hundred percent full. Frequently, I contemplate how insane it is that people are forced to arrive around 7am, an hour before school starts, in order to battle for a parking spot. We have an amazing school district, however an expansion of parking would provide a decrease to unpermitted parking, tardiness, and stress.
As you can imagine, parking for that many guests isn’t possible unless the majority of us park elsewhere in the morning of May 9. So, we need some teamwork to pull this off. There will be no DPR staff cars in the lot that day whatsoever, but we will still need about 10 other people other to park elsewhere. We are asking all supervisors to make plans with their team for alternative parking on Tuesday.
As students we pay for many fees and parking should not be one of them. Here at Oregon State University many students and professors ride their bikes around campus, but there are also many students who drive their cars around campus. Some students have the privilege to have their car here, but for some students it is a necessity because they may live far from campus or because it is their ride back home. For parking passes we have to pay a fee that varies from $95 to $495 for an annual permit. This is the fee we have to pay just to park on campus and not have to park of campus. With how high our tuition is you would expect something like parking would be included. It should not even be included in our tuition, I believe
Based on the interview with Enrique DaStewpido, director of Georgia State University Auxiliary and support service department, our recommendation is very similar to Georgia State University’s procedure on delegating this specific project. Georgia State University was having similar issues of parking their vehicles on campus due to shortages in the parking decks and lots. There were parking lots located in various areas away from the campus. For example: they had to make students park in the Turner field which is a couple of distance away from the main campus. Students had to take shuttles the commuted back and forth from the field to the campus. The shuttle arrival time was approximately every 15 minutes. Their solution was to give students
Are you on the fence about whether to delineate parking spaces for your customers? Consider these benefits of parking lot striping from Palmer Painting:
Early Wednesday morning university’s parking lots full to capacity, but students yet in their cars trying to locate parking everywhere they can, they didn’t care about the long walk to classes from the parking areas or even
Are the students of Three Rivers playing musical chairs, or trying to park their cars? This has become a problem for myself, and the faculty of Three Rivers. The proposition would be to implement designated parking stickers to the disabled, and the faculty of Three Rivers. Dr. Payne you are the person who can make a difference by helping, not just the disabled, and faculty of Three Rivers, but the other students as well. Three Rivers prides its self in being accommodating to the student’s needs, and this proposal will help show how accommodating Three Rovers truly is.
No solution goes without having its issues, whether it is structural, financial or aesthetic. Some of the solutions to expand the parking are more reasonable, while some will cost a pretty penny. Whichever proposal the college decides to go with will benefit the
Mississippi College has a huge issue with parking. There is not enough parking and often many have to park elsewhere, like Koger’s. Parking is a safety issue Mississippi College’s parking situation is an issue that only causes problems and should be fixed immediately.
While the total acreage of the Downtown campus is 18.37, at least 12.667 acres are used for the 1,900 parking spots that does not include the 300 parking spots in the parking garage. This is simple deuced from using the school’s statement of 2,200 parking spots for the downtown campus, subtracting the 300 for the garage parking and then simply understanding that in a acre of land there is 43,560 square feet, and if each parking spot is approximately 10’x18’, which is 180 square feet, you can simply induce that there would be 242 parking spaces, but that is assuming that there are not turning lanes and that each parking space is right next to each other, making it impossible to do anything in that space. So we continue, that the turning lines are 18’ for two way lanes and 14’ for one way lines, at the maximum the acreage would be 12.667, the minimum 11.7. In both cases the amount of land usage is very high for the amount of land allocated for this
Due to safety. parking is only allowed on one side of the street during the day . The Drivers side Is required to be on the opposite side of the curb you have parked on and 10 feet away from driveways.
