The City of St. Louis Treasurer’s Office has issued a request for proposal (RFP) to hire a consultant to evaluate the city’s current parking programs and to recommend improvements.
The selected consultant will be asked to provide recommendations on parking prices; parking utilization; best practices; future deployment of parking meters; guidelines for establishing and maintaining permit parking zones; and principles for accommodating special events and construction.
The parking study is required by city code and is in conjunction with the six month field test of various parking technologies in downtown St. Louis and the Central West End. The field test ends in July, with plans to begin installing new parking meter technology in fall 2014. The winner of the parking study RFP will be announced in June.
