Motorcycle is one of the major commuting modes in Taiwan because of its mobility and convenience. Lots of motorcycle in Taipei City cause serious traffic congestion, safety and scenery problems. It is an important issue about how to reduce demand of parking spaces wherever there is not enough supply of parking spaces. Finally, this research is aimed to find an optimal pricing scheme to change customer’s mode choice and parking duration behaviors and improve traffic congestion and parking order problems.
