What are the dimensions of a parking space?
1 Answers
Standard parking space dimensions are primarily divided into two sizes: large and small. Large parking spaces measure 15.6 meters in length and 3.25 meters in width, suitable for medium and large vehicles. Small parking spaces measure 6 meters in length and 2.5 meters in width, suitable for small vehicles. Parking space arrangements can be categorized into three types: parallel, angled (30°, 45°, 60°), and perpendicular. Large vehicle parking spaces should not use angled or perpendicular arrangements. 1. Parallel parking space: Standard length is 6 meters, width is 2.5 meters. 2. Angled parking space: The slanted length should be 6 meters, width 2.8 meters, with a vertical distance between the two slanted lines maintained at 2.5 meters. 3. Perpendicular parking space: Length should be no less than 5 meters, typically set at 6 meters, width 2.5 meters, with 2.5x5.3 meters being the optimal standard size. 4. Determination method: Generally, standard parking space dimensions are determined based on vehicle size. Small parking spaces use dimensions of 2.5~2.7×5~6 meters, single-lane turning lanes should be no less than 3.5 meters wide, double-lanes no less than 5 meters. Turning sections should accommodate a vehicle's need for a single-turn maneuver. For safety or to accommodate medium and large vehicles, dimensions are often set to 6 meters or more.
