Specific poles

Specific challenges are associated with certain types of parking generators: social housing, hospitals, shopping centers, tourism and leisure, stadiums, convention centers…

These hubs, which have their own unique parking characteristics, deserve specific attention and treatment.

Sareco has been studying the operation of all parking generators for several decades.

In particular, it regularly conducts surveys and benchmarks, which allow it to better understand user behavior and the expectations of different stakeholders on specific topics in a neighborhood. 

As such, hospitals, train station hubs, social districts and shopping centers have been very regularly at the heart of studies carried out by Sareco in recent years. 

Stadium and convention center

Stadium-type facilities or convention centers have a low overall usage rate but generate significant one-off demands.

Tourism and leisure

Seaside resort, ski resort, places of art or history, places of scientific discovery… tourist sites are multifaceted but present common problems in terms of parking.

Mall

Parking is a major issue for shopping centers, as they serve a large catchment area. Furthermore, for centers located on the outskirts of cities, or for large or heavy purchases (such as weekly grocery shopping), customers primarily arrive by car.

Hospital complexes

The evolution of hospital practices tends to densify hospital sites, often at the expense of surface parking, which requires a comprehensive approach to travel in order to correctly estimate future parking needs.

Social housing

Sareco regularly conducts missions on parking and travel in social neighborhoods, particularly within the framework of the National Urban Renewal Plans (PNRU).
