A viral case regarding a parking fee of up to IDR 800,000 for a group of buses at the Bung Karno Tomb Tourism dan Trade Information Center (PIPP) highlights the importance of clear dan transparent parking management (Metrotvnews 2025). This study employs a quantitative approach to analyze parking space requirements dan propose solutions for parking area management. The analysis shows a total of 627 parked vehicles, with an average parking volume of 647 vehicles dan an accumulation of 54 vehicles. The average parking duration is 13 minutes for two-wheeled vehicles, 5 minutes for four-wheeled vehicles, dan 6 minutes for heavy vehicles. Based on data from 100 respondents, 54% were male dan 46% were female, with the highest rate of private vehicle ownership among male respondents. These findings indicate that the increasing mobility of visitors must be balanced with more efficient parking arrangements.
