Project Background
Preparing our Parking System for a Big, Bright Future
Missoula manages a parking and multimodal system to support community needs—from commuting to conducting business, shopping and dining, attending events, or enjoying our recreation opportunities. As our city evolves and we prepare for the future, we’re looking inward at how our parking programs and options can better support the people who live, work and play all around Missoula.
As a user of the Missoula parking system, we need your feedback to help shape project outcomes.
Why Now?
Demand for our street curbs and our parking facilities is expanding and changing.
Missoula started managing parking more than 50 years ago. Since then, our city has grown and many different competing needs for on-street and off-street parking and curb space have emerged. Many of these needs weren’t considered in original plans for parking and curb management—especially in developing areas of our city.
Advancements in how, when, and where we manage parking will improve experience for all users.
As our community has changed, so has the parking industry! New practices, ideas, and technologies can help create a better parking and mobility experience for everyone in Missoula if implemented correctly.
More advanced parking management can support our big plans for the future.
Being strategic about our parking management practices can help us achieve our most important community goals, like mitigating the effects of our rapid housing development, supporting our vibrant economy, protecting our environment and air quality, reducing traffic congestion, and making sure Missoula can pay for parking and transportation needs well into the future.
