What is a Parking Study?
A parking study is a key part of the planning and approvals process in Ontario, helping determine how many parking spaces a development actually needs. Municipalities rely on these studies to evaluate whether a proposal meets local bylaws, fits surrounding land use patterns, and can support expected traffic and site activity. At Harper Dell, we conduct parking studies that are clear, defensible, and aligned with municipal standards - helping your project move through the approval process with fewer delays.
Our work begins with a detailed review of applicable zoning bylaws, parking ratios, and relevant policy documents. We then assess your site’s layout, constraints, access points, and expected demand based on land use, size, and operational needs. The result is a concise report that includes recommended parking supply, supporting rationale, and data that municipal reviewers expect to see in a complete submission.
A well-prepared parking study can help avoid redesigns, prevent over- or under-parking, and reduce back-and-forth with planners or the Committee of Adjustment. For over 30 years, Harper Dell has supported developments across Ontario by providing parking studies that help clients meet requirements and keep their projects on track.
