Finding a suitable parking space in busy cities is a time consuming and challenging task. During the searching process, drivers become frustrated and distracted. Motor vehicle drivers might not initially find a free spot, and will leave the area by making a loop to find another spot close to their destination. As a result, there is increased congestion on the road, sometimes causing accidents, and wasting valuable time. To address this problem, we believe that a parking reservation system is necessary and will help reduce the high volume of congestion that might otherwise lead to accidents and have many other environmental and health impacts. The objective of our research is to propose a mobile-based reservation system. The process of finding a free parking space shall be made easy and fast; customers will only be a few taps away from guaranteed and paid parking, based on their preferences. The model presented considers all nearby parking service providers’ ability to satisfy customers’ requirements and will reserve the best parking for the user.
