This paper presents an overall framework for parking choice and search behavior, composed of three time–space phases: (a) pretrip static decision; (b) en route, passive search; and (c) in-area search strategy adaptation. The empirical part of the paper focuses on the first phase and describes a parking choice model that is based on pooled stated and revealed preference data sources. A special, web-based survey was designed to model the choice of parking type (on-street versus off-street parking). The model estimation results showed that the choice of parking location was affected by parking cost, search time, and walk time to the destination, facility type, and decision-maker characteristics. The model was applied to a case study to illustrate its capabilities to evaluate various policy measures. Specifically, the effect of a change in the demand for on- and off-street parking was evaluated with respect to the parking pricing policy and the value of search time for various parking durations.
