Better Design Practice
Ensure parking facilities provide adequate visibility levels for users
Parking spaces should have oversight from surrounding space and should not require people to venture into ‘blind spot’ areas.
The route from car to door should be visible and overlooked – this means that people moving from car to the building's entrance should be able to be seen, either from the street or by neighbours or from the windows of habitable spaces.
Trees, planting and other landscape elements should not create opportunities for people to conceal themselves – see also
