| dc.description.abstract | The parking generating potential of hotels arc studied. A twelve (12) hours parking habit survey was carried out at the premises of twenty (20) hotels in Kano metropolis. Relevant inventories of facilities were also taken at each hotel. Results obtained were used to formulate mathematical models which showed that a linear relationship exist between the number of parking stalls as well as peak parking demand, and the total number of rooms and the area covered by the hotel. The Regression models showed that the number of parking stalls is linearly related to the number of rooms in the hotel. The average number of parking stalls presently supplied by hotels per room is approximately 0.3204 stalls. The location of hotels was found to be a significant influencing factor. Hotels located in the central business districts, outskirts of business district and outside the central business district had intercepts of 6.4652, 7.1583 and 1.5833, respectively. Similarly, the peak parking demand generated per room is 0.19920 vehicles, with intercepts of 2.3423,6.2324 and 4.01693 for hotels located at | en_US |
