OSP monitors current and anticipated parking demands, and evaluates need for the expansion and development of new parking facilities. SFMTA encourages ridesharing by providing reduced on-street parking rates for authorized vanpools, reduced monthly rates in city-owned garages for authorized carpools, and reduced on-street parking rates for authorized carpools at several hospitals and other institutions.
