Abstract
The main objective of the present paper is to predict the average delay values for delayed vehicles at the adjacent entrance and exit gates combination of a parking garage using a simulation package named STARSIM. Flow level, number of lanes at each approach of the major road, number of lanes at the entrance and exit gates, and proportion of parking vehicles from the major road are taken as the most important factors that affect the performance of the gates of the car park in term of average delay to be predicted in this paper. These traffic and geometrical conditions are used to generate a range of delay values, and the effect of these conditions on the performance of the entrance and exit gates, in term of delay, is discussed and presented figuratively.
