The parking on campus at UCF is an absolute nightmare. Over the past few weeks I have noticed that it is very hard to find a place to park. I have had to drive around the parking garage multiple times before I finally found a parking space. Sometimes, I even have to go to a different lot or garage. Also, I noticed that parking is so overloaded that people with the wrong pass park in the parking lot designated for my apartment complex. So now the residents in my apartments have to find a different place to park even though they have the correct pass to park in the apartment lot.
Why do you think parking is so bad here on campus? I believe there are a few reasons that empty parking spaces are scarce. One reason I believe is that the school gives out more passes than there are parking spaces. Everyone who wants a pass can buy one. This works if there are not many people that drive and park on campus, but there are too many people that do that. Also, people park on campus without a parking pass. Parking officials need to be better at cracking down on people without the correct pass to park on campus.
How do you think the parking situation should be solved? There are a few things the school could do to make the parking situation on campus much easier for the students. One thing that could be done to increase the amount of parking is adding more parking lots. There is plenty of space around campus to add more parking lots. Also, there is a new building going up over an old parking lot. If you are going to take away a lot, you should put a new in replace of it. My other idea to improve the parking situation is to turn existing lots into parking garages. Parking garages hold more than twice as many cars as do parking lots.
The parking situation on campus also could hinder the education of students. Having trouble finding a place to park could cause students to be late for their classes. On busy days, a student might have to spend up to twenty or thirty minutes trying to find a place to park their car. Then, if they do not park near their class they have to walk across campus which could take about ten to fifteen minutes depending on where you are in relation to your class. This would force students to leave their homes earlier to try and find a place to park. By doing this, they are cutting down on their sleep or their study time in the morning. So, there are few reasons why parking is not very good on campus. Also, there are a few things that the school could do to help out the students with the parking problems.
