User Perception Among Urban Youth towards Paid Public Parking in Klang Valley. (English)

The importance of paid public parking in the city cannot be denied since the ownership and use of private vehicles is increasing, especially among the youth. At the same time, the quantity and quality of paid public parking should also be in line with current user needs. Thus, the objective of this study is to examine the youth's perception of paid public parking in the Klang Valley area. This study applies quantitative methods through the distribution of online questionnaires to youth respondents in the Klang Valley. Through factor analysis of youth respondents, it was found that paying public parking charges online is easier and saves time and that women use private vehicles more often. In addition, the use of paid public parking is very high during working hours which is for eight hours. In fact, the availability of public parking determines when users want to go out and users also feel safe when using public parking at night. The number of public parking lots is also found to be sufficient especially during peak hours and public parking charges should be subject to sales and service tax (SST). Therefore, since the demand for public parking is high, the government should offer public parking that is relevant to the needs of local residents. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
