Shreveort's Parking Expansion

By making parking more accessible and available, it lowers the chances of accidents at busy areas.  Not only that, it also:

• Lowers air pollution (less cars circling around in search of parking)
• Decreases traffic and congestion on the street and inside the parking lot
• Makes the street safer for pedestrians (more parked cars, less moving cars)
• Saves time for people
• Decreases the risk of possible road rage
• If paid parking, revenue for the city for improved roads and facility maintenance
• Stimulates the economy and businesses (if it is known that parking is easily accessible, consumers may be more willing to visit shopping centers more often)

Shreveport, LA kept all of these points in mind while expanding the parking lot.  Read all about it here: http://www.ksla.com/story/15956316/parking-lot-expansion-adds-to-holiday-economy
