CHAPTER I
RATIONALE
This project proposal titled "Optimizing Campus Mobility: Enhancing Parking Infrastructure at
CBEA" seeks to address the pressing issue of disorganised parking arrangements that hinder pedestrian
mobility along the narrow pathway adjacent to the college cooperative. Currently, students and staff
members of College of Business, Economics and Accountancy (CBEA) resort to parking their vehicles,
particularly motorcycles, in this shaded area due to its convenience and protection from the sun. However,
this has led to an overcrowded and disorderly situation, impeding safe and accessible passage for pedestrians.
In response to the pressing need for improved campus mobility and safety, the proponents of this
paper propose the implementation of the said project. This initiative aims to create a well-organised shaded
parking space for motorcycles and bicycles, thereby resolving the current congestion issue and providing a
safer environment for pedestrians. By constructing a designated parking area, equipped with shade
structures, it is expected to not only alleviate the parking woes but also enhance the overall campus
experience for students and staff. This project embodies a commitment towards fostering a conducive and
accessible learning environment at CBEA, ensuring the well-being and convenience of all members of the
college’s community.
Statement of Justification

Anticipated Benefits
The implementation of creating a new parking space for motorcycles and bicycles for individuals
who park in the premises of CBEA is expected to have several benefits for both pedestrians and vehicle
First, the convenience and safety of pedestrians and riders improve. Due to the creation of
new parking spaces for motorcycles and bicycles, pedestrians, especially students, will have clearer walkways
to mobilise without the hindrance of parked vehicles. Additionally, by providing a designated parking area
for riders, it will make it more convenient for them to find a secured spot to park their vehicles.
Second, the designated parking spaces for bicycles promote a sustainable transportation
option. Through setting a designated parking area for bicycles, students would be encouraged to choose
cycling as their mode of transportation for carbon reduction and a more eco-friendly campus environment.

Feasibility Assessment
This project proposal aims to create a designated space to accommodate more vehicles used by
students, as well as faculty and staff, in CBEA. Currently, the available parking space for vehicles is
limited—especially for motorcycles and bicycles—as the allocated area primarily serves those with four
wheels. Furthermore, feasibility assessment, which includes considerations of practicality, time constraints,
Practicality of resources would consist of the workers that would be incharge in constructing the
parking area shade. Their skills and experiences are essential in the process for a well-built finish.
Additionally, sourcing of materials such as pipes, roofing sheets, cement, and other various tools are
necessary for the project. In terms of time constraint, it would include that of the timeline set for the
construction of the project. It should be in compliance with the allotted time approved by the supervisor,
and not disrupt any classes upon its hour of construction. Moreover, budget limitations and regulatory
requirements should also be considered in order to achieve a steady financial system and establish a project
that adheres to the safety of its beneficiaries. With such assessments, it can be concluded that by effectively
managing the resources, navigating the time constraint, and overcoming other various constraints, success in

Needs Assessment
Parking availability and efficiency are significant concerns for any university campus. Inadequate
parking space can lead to frustration, tardiness, and inefficiency among students, faculty, staff, and visitors.
Addressing these issues requires a comprehensive needs assessment to understand the current challenges and
The current parking situation at CBEA presents several challenges that have been identified
through evaluation and feedback from students, faculty, staff, and visitors. Despite having four designated
parking areas conveniently located near academic buildings and other campus facilities, peak hours from 10
A.M. to 2 P.M. witness congestion and disorganization, particularly evident at the side of the extension
building and near the canteen. Feedback highlights the lack of proper shade for vehicles, resulting in
uncomfortable conditions for parked motorcycles and electric bicycles. This congestion not only impacts
vehicle owners but also creates difficulties for pedestrians navigating through narrow footpaths.
Additionally, individuals who commute to campus via bicycles struggle to find safe and secure parking
spaces. Recognizing these challenges, a common suggestion emerged: the implementation of UV sun shades

Description
The figure illustrates an Anti-UV Sunshade Net which is to be installed in the parking area of
CBEA. The area is located between the CBEA Cafeteria and Cooperative, where most students park their
motorcycles and bicycles due to its shaded nature. However, this has brought disturbance to pedestrians,
leaving them with limited space to utilize. Therefore, as shown above, the sunshade net is set to provide
vehicle owners with more shaded spaces, allowing them to park their motorcycles and bicycles in an orderly
manner. As a result, people can walk freely in the pathway without the need to consider the
unsystematically-parked vehicles. The Anti-UV Sunshade Net resolves the dilemma faced by both vehicle
