NEVADA: Parking Pricing to Minimize Car Travel through the Most Congested Areas Around Lake Tahoe, NV
The Tahoe Transportation District will deploy peak-season pricing at a rural tourist destination parking facility. This will be combined with enforcement of road-shoulder parking prohibitions and better user information. Outside of the VPPP project, an improved shuttle service linking tourist destinations with remote parking and better bicycle access (including an off-road trail and bicycle rental) will be provided.
Implementation Funds Awarded
2015
Anticipated Completion Date
2019
April – June 2018 Update
The Tahoe Transportation District (TTD) completed a site visit and a kick-off meeting with the TAC, the consultant, and their sub-consultant in October 2017. The kick-off included the development of an outline for the parking management plan. The consultants drafted the Parking Management Plan and are currently addressing comments and developing pricing strategies for implementation and expansion. It is anticipated that the parking management plan will be completed by October 15, 2018 with the first phase of parking lot meters installed the spring of 2019. The parking systems will go live in May of 2019. The outreach campaign is expected to be developed over the winter of 2018/19 and continue into post-implementation.
