This paper investigates the spatial patterns of residential parking intrusions in New York City, their determinants, and an estimated number and spatial patterns of induced excessive vehicle miles traveled (VMT). The paper analyzes parking tickets data with driver registration demographic data, and determines potential residential parking intrusions of passenger vehicles. Results show that significant clusters of intrusions are mainly located in almost all the residential areas of Manhattan, and some residential areas of Bronx, Brooklyn, and Queens. A census tract with larger number of elementary schools, larger surrounding retail areas, higher vehicle density, and at least one garage tend to encourage higher intrusion density. In comparison, a census tract with larger surrounding office areas, higher car ownership, and the median year of built later than 1961 tend to deter intrusion density. The overall annual avoidable VMT calculated from ticketed passenger vehicles in New York City is approximately 2,273,881 miles. The origin-destination lines with high intrusion trips are mostly within its own borough, headed towards Manhattan (for non-Manhattan origins), and short in distance. Implications for residential parking policies like prior implementation of a resident parking permit (RPP) program in certain neighborhoods and the provision of additional metered parking spaces are also discussed.
