Management of vehicle parking is a crucial part of public transportation in urban areas. In metro cities, the problem of vehicle parking is severe due to space constraint and ever-increasing number of vehicles. The present paper deals with a study on pricing strategies at parking facility of railway station in a tier-2 city. The optimal pricing strategy has been developed considering simulated demand and supply. The study involves the use of discrete event system (DES) simulation technique to analyze and develop optimal parking strategy. A simulation model was developed to generate real-time situation and to perform different types of pricing scenarios in order to get the balance between demand and supply. It is believed that the study would provide useful direction to those working in the field of public parking management.
