City of Lowell Parking Study

The City of Lowell is using a Housing Choice Grant award from the Executive Office of Housing and Economic Development (EOHED) to conduct a comprehensive parking strategy. The Lowell Parking Study reviewed and analyzed existing parking conditions including parking inventory, utilization, policies, management, regulations, and pricing, and analyzed the parking supply and demand compared to existing land uses. The Parking Study was developed to help ensure that the parking system is consistent with the City’s economic development and transportation planning goals, including the ongoing GoLowell Multimodal Complete Streets plan.

The study team developed strategies and recommendations based off data collection and evaluation exercises, incorporating feedback received at the community and neighborhood meetings as well as a parking survey that was conducted earlier this year. Study results and preliminary recommendations were shared during a virtual public meeting on May 27, and we want to hear from you on the team's preliminary recommendations.

You can learn more about the recommendations that were shared during the May 27 virtual public meeting by visiting the website at www.lowellma.gov/1517/Citywide-Parking-Study.
