Abstract. It is proposed to use the known dependence of the change of indicators of transport traffic functioning, namely the total travel time, depending on the nature of placing the cars parked on the road network of the city to determine the effectiveness of the system of parking. The technique tested on example of Kharkiv allowed to establish that as a result offormation of car parks in cities the total travel time of all road users of the road network is reduced.
Key words: central downtown, parking system, street and road network, parking network, social and economic effects, travel time.

Introduction
Analysis of the current state of the transport infrastructure, traffic management systems, and
research in the field of traffic shows the relevance of research areas related to the development of management and parking systems. In recent years, special attention is paid to the dis-

parities between the rates of car ownership and pace of development of the road network, but the shortage of parking spaces, especially in the central downtown (CD) brings to a central place in the transport problems of the city the task of forming a system of parking that would meet the needs of the population in parking, as well as the task of integrated solution of parking management.
One of the ways of solving the problem of parked cars on the road network (URN) is a construction of above-ground multilevel parkings of large capacity, and the importance attached to their rational allocation. But most areas in urban areas for parking is not enough. It is noticeable that the existing ground or above-ground parking or underground parking unable to meet the needs of the population on the parking lots and the construction of new places and require financial subsidies, especially in the central business part of any city. In terms of traffic to the satisfaction of the needs of car parks also need to enhance the capacity of the streets.
In [1] is possible to solve the given problem by establishing alternative parking places of ways of parking that is systems of parking. It is necessary to take into account the economic and psychological aspects of attractiveness of the use of parking attractiveness for customers and when designing each parking one should take into account the placement and capacity of adjacent parking-lots, which will make it possible to create a system of parking, fully satisfying the need in parking-lots in the СD. It is also necessary that the number of parking spaces should match the number of cars that need them.
Evaluation of the effectiveness of the existing parking system in the CD is currently one of the pressing issues It can be obtained by reducing the travel time and increasing the traffic speed on the URN, because of the banning concerning parking of cars on its most part and placing of vehicles on the proposed system of parkings.
Analysis of the literature
Due to the fact that there does not yet exist a systematic approach to establishing a system of parking [1], as a result, there are no methods for assessing the efficiency of such systems.
Typically, attention is paid to the efficiency of individual parking-lot or parking area, namely
the degree of effectiveness of investing funds into them. Also, attention is paid to assessing the effectiveness of the payment of fees for different types of sites, management and improvement of tariffs, which is one of the most effective instruments of reducing the traffic load in the central downtown [2]. They also evaluate the effect (reducing the number of road traffic accidents) or the costs for introduction of banning for parking [3].
In [4-10] experimental studies of traffic behavior in interaction with the parking urban network enabled to obtain the dependences of indexes change of traffic flows performance on the ways of vehicles placement on the URN. Gradually, including into the scheme of the transport network step by step the parking network, that exists in Kharkiv, in [9, 10] there was received a response as a permit for parking on a particular street generally affects the whole urban transport network and its operation. Thus, [9, 10] there was obtained a graph (Fig. 1) of changes of transport costs on the urban road network (Btr, aut. • hour./hour) while increasing the
network density of parking (p, km2/km2).
The indicator of transport flows performance on the transport network (total time spent on the network) under the development of parking (Fig. 1) is worsening. This is primarily due to expectations of vehicle exit from the parking place; travel time of incorrectly parked vehicles or making way for oncoming vehicles, etc.

The purpose of the study and formulation of the problem
The purpose of the work consists in evaluating the effectiveness of forming a parking systems in the central downtown based on existing dependences of traffic flows performance on the ways of vehicles placement on the URN on example of Kharkiv.
Evaluation of efficiency of parking system formation in Kharkiv
According to the methods in [9,10] the parking density is determined by the formula
P =
Spark
°URN
(1)
where Spark - area of the parking network, km2; SmN - the area of URN, km2.
Area of the parking network is given by
lmin = LURN • pmin , (3)
lmax = LURN • p max (4)
and constitute
lmin = 2,6k^ lmax = 12km.
According to the results of identifying the opportunities for parking on the road network of Kharkiv (database fragment on the characteristics of trips, which in the central downtown were given numbers, is presented in Table. 1), parking should be banned on the distance of approximately 42 km of trips in the central downtown, and vehicles must be placed in the proposed parking system.
Therefore, for calculating a decrease in the trip time expenditure over the network by placing motor cars in parking areas we will use the method of extrapolation. To do this, in the Microsoft Excel software there was built a trend line (Fig. 2).
Spark =t Bpark • L , (2)
i=1
where b - the number of arcs of the network, that make up the network of parking, unit.; Bpark
- the average width of the roadway of parking network arcs that make up the network of parking, km. In [7, 8] there was adopted
Bpark = 0,011 km; Li - the length of i - network
arc, which makes up the parking network, km.
With the help of the curve meter and application of the map of Kharkiv it was established that the length of the urban road network (LURN, km) is 1500 km. The length of the urban road network of the central downtown (LURNCD, km) is about 120 km. Then, the urban road network area as well as the downtown parking network area respectively equals
SURN = 1500 • 0,011 = 16,5 km2 ,
Spark = 120 • 0,011 = 1,32 km2.

Fig. 2. The trend line that describes the change in the time required to travel over the network while increasing the density of the parking network
The probability value of approximation R2 (mixed correlation square), which is calculated automatically by Excel application lies in the range from 0 to 1 and reflects the trend line values proximity to the actual data. The trendline is the most accurate when the value is close to 1.
In Fig. 1 the minimum pmin and the maximum pmax of the value of the parking network density network lencorrespond to the following length of arcs of the network:
It has been established that the trend of data change is shown most clearly by a straight line
(R2 = 0,826).

The resulting linear function is as follows
Btr = 50009 -p +16057 . (5)
The density of the parking network before the introduction of the parking system equals
1 32 2 2
Pbefor = tVt = 0,08km2/km2.
16,5
The square of the parking network in the CD after the introduction of the parking system in Kharkiv constitutes
-Wr = 78 • 0,011 = 0,858 km2 ,
and the density of the network of parking is the following:
P after = ті58 = 0,052 km2/km2.
16,5
According to the obtained function, general time expenditure respectively before and after the introduction of the parking system in Kharkiv are the following:
Btrbefor = 50009 • 0,08 +16057 =
= 20057,72 aut. • hour./hour.
Btrafter = 50009 • 0,052 +16057 =
= 18657,468 aut. • hour./hour.
ABtr = 20057,72 -18657,468 =
= 1400,25 aut. • hour./hour.
After removing the parked cars from the CD of Kharkiv, there is expected obtaining of some social effect, which consists in reducing the time expenditure on the urban network according to the obtained function by 1400 cars per hour/ hour.
To determine the economic effect of reducing the delay of vehicles when driving on the URN, it is not advisable to limit only to estimated costs for fuel, vehicle depreciation, the cost of one hour of work of a person or machine-hour, the costs associated with the elimination of environmental damage or material loss due to road traffic accidents. Approaching to the state of traffic jams in big cities will lead to what is real-

ly uncertain, but an increasing number of centers of gravity will experience significant damage. Because each center of gravity requires satisfaction of the demand for parking in its vicinity, spontaneous parking in the CD will inevitably create a situation, when the demand for travel is not possible to satisfy.
Conclusion
Formation of a parking system will enable to sufficiently reduce the number of parked cars on the urban road network and provide relatively free passage of transport, and as a result, provide opportunity to gain social and economic benefits. The economic effect is obvious, since the testing results of research on example of Kharkiv showed the possibility of obtaining a social impact - reduction of the total time of rolling stock movement of road users on the urban road network by 7%, otherwise traffic jams will lead to economic losses of the budgets of all levels.
