In some cases, site constraints can make a conventional parking layout prohibitive, or even impossible. Site constraints, such as small and irregular shaped sites, difficult soils and height limits, can make parking design an exceptional challenge.

A designated pick up and drop off zone along the main road diverts carpool and TNC drivers away from the new entrance road, reducing congestion.

This created a safe and welcoming environment separated from vehicular traffic.Īdditionally, a new mobility hub established a more efficient traffic flow. Doing so allowed the old entrance to be converted into landscaped space with pedestrian arcades, including a bridge linking the BART station to the campus. To solve this puzzle, the design team integrated a new entry road on the opposite side of the existing BART parking structure that would service both it and the new Workday garage. As the existing entrance road divided the campus and the BART structure, emphasizing a safe pedestrian experience was a vital part of the design. Therefore, a significant issue posed by the project was designing a cohesive parking strategy for the Workday campus while providing clear separation for BART users. Solving the Parking Puzzle at the Workday corporate campus involved moving the entry road on the opposite side of the existing BART parking structure and adding a mobility hub with a pick-up and drop-off zone off the main road.Īt the Workday corporate campus in Pleasanton, the location selected for a new office building and parking structure was sited adjacent to an existing BART station and parking garage.
