This chapter describes a scenario where ridesharing is introduced in urban parking to relieve the
pressure of finding a parking site in the city center. A significant amount of time is wasted in cruising
for a parking lot according to both life experience and research findings. Although a few policies
and strategies have been tested, the middle ground between individual flexibility and reduced travel
demand is not yet well accommodated. Therefore, I report of a joint model of ridesharing and parking:
people drive from their front doors to a satellite parking site to share rides, and travel to a similar
destination in the city center so that parking demand is reduced.
