- Free parking has a high cost to communities, which you can learn more about here
- Goals such as walkable/bike-able communities, more (affordable) housing, better environmental outcomes and less traffic congestion, can't be fully realized if we continue to maintain and increase our supply of free parking
Project Overview:
In June of 2021, Camden engaged John Burke, a parking & transportation consultant, to conduct a downtown parking study to assist the Town in its efforts to optimize and better balance the use of its downtown parking supply.
This study contributes to the implementation of Camden's 2012 Downtown Master Plan, which recommends the development of an integrated parking management strategy for the downtown.
