Just by indicating parking difficulty, cities can encourage people to take public transit rather than drive, perhaps mitigating traffic problems.

Fake software in the pursuit of the central planning agenda?

Yeah, cause public transit doesn’t waste time at all. Standing at a bus stop, at a train station, out in the weather, waiting for a connecting train, etc.

From the headline, I thought it was going to be a device to help people figure out how to park their cars! Like this gal in the video.

Simple solution - don’t do business with folks who don’t provide adequate parking.

Thanks for the warning. I'll just drive to a store with free parking in the suburbs or shop on the web.

I just checked it out and it looks like it works only within parts of the city. my area is limited which is true now with all the yuppies moving in. but northeast philly near the airport is medium. and west philly is medium. Home depot is medium. Burbs are blank. won’t mean anything to me anyhow. I use uber for inter city travel and burbs sometimes. never public trans.

The problem with predictions is that it uses past data. People evolve their strategies, which invalidates the prior knowledge.
