Drivers’ movements across or within parking facilities contribute to various problems, i.e., congestion, safety, and environmental effects. Micro-simulation can help to increase the understanding of drivers’ movements and their effects on parking management. This study aims to develop a multi agent-based simulation tool to demonstrate its capability of studying driver movements across parking lots. The program was constructed using the multi-agent modeling environment NetLogo. The developed simulation tool allows to adjust features of the parking facilities. Additionally, vehicle travel time and parking occupancy indicators were integrated to investigate the efficiency of the parking.
