What is Parking Lot Size?

Parking Lot Size (PLS) refers to the total area required to accommodate a specific number of parking spaces. This calculation helps in determining the amount of land needed for parking facilities, ensuring there is sufficient space for vehicles to park comfortably and safely. The area per space typically includes the space required for the vehicle itself as well as additional space for access and maneuvering.

Example Calculation

Let's consider an example:

Using the formula to calculate the Parking Lot Size (PLS):

\[ PLS = 100 \times 300 = 30000 \, \text{ft}^2 \]

This means that the total parking lot size required for 100 spaces, each occupying 300 square feet, is 30,000 square feet.
