“…Some scholars conducted a traffic organization optimization study in terms of entrance/exit length, layout spacing, and number of exit merging points [10] . And others have established an average vehicle delay model based on the delay effect caused by the interaction of dynamic and static traffic flow [11] . All of their research can provide a reference for improving parking efficiency to a certain extent.…”

To improve the rationality of the connection between large appertaining parking facilities and urban road traffic, and to solve the problem of rapid access, this paper proposes a method for optimizing the layout of parking entrances and exits that focuses on the synergy of safety and efficiency. Firstly, the number of entrances is restricted and optional locations are determined based on specifications. Then, an objective function is constructed to minimize the total layout cost as the sum of conflict risk and travel time cost, considering road flow and service level constraints. And a parking lot entrances and exits layout optimization model is established from the perspective of safety and efficiency synergy. The genetic algorithm is used to solve the multivariate non-linear objective function and an optimization scheme for the layout of entrances and exits of an appertaining underground parking facility is proposed, with model parameters and traffic flow sensitivity analysis carried out. Finally, VISSIM simulation experiments are conducted to evaluate the effect of the optimization scheme in terms of safety and efficiency improvement. The results show that the optimized scheme has good adaptability to real-life traffic scenarios, reducing the average queue length at entrances and exits by 47.33% and overall vehicle travel time by 4.72%, as well as reducing the total number of conflicts by 10.38%. This disperses conflict points and improves safety, while reducing delays and improving parking efficiency. The method can provide a reference for the layout of entrances and exits of parking facilities in the planning stage, further improving the coordination between static and dynamic traffic in the city.

“…The increased number of vehicles not only puts a strain on traffic but also causes a slew of problems for car owners [1]. People's travel is increasingly inextricably linked to automobiles, so they will inevitably encounter parking during travel [2,3]. In office buildings or shopping malls with heavy traffic, especially during the peak parking period, the problem of parking difficulties is more prominent.…”

To address the urgent issue of car owners wasting a lot of time because they cannot find empty parking spaces in the largely multistorey car park, the paper conceives a solution including algorithm ParkIG. This scheme uses the infrared photoelectric switch to monitor the parking space status. At the same time, we define a special communication protocol named MCP to analyze the parking space data when analyzing the data transmitted by the photoelectric switch. Algorithm ParkIG is used in finding the nearest empty parking space and optimal path planning. Based on the MCP protocol and navigation system, the algorithm ParkIG initially identifies the layer of multistorey where the car is positioned. Our algorithm ParkIG greatly reduces the time and space size of the search domain and update domain when searching for vacant parking spaces in optimal path planning and ends the algorithm running to avoid a lot of computations that are not essential when the algorithm found an optimal path from the entrance to empty of parking space. Simulation experiments show that the performance of our scheme has been significantly improved, such as the time that it takes for the car owner to search for a vacant parking space is decreased by about 25.8% and reduced the space size of search domain and update domain by 70% compared to the algorithm Dijkstra.
