In this type of parking the vehicles are parked on the curb which may be designed for parking. Curb parking is quite convenient for those who could find a suitable space to park their vehicles near the place they wish to stop, but for others who could not find a parking space it is a problem and often they may have to park their vehicles at a far off place and walk down to the destination. Unless curb parking facility has been adequately designed in advance while planning a new town, it might lead to a lot of inconvenience and congestion due to decreased road capacity as well increase in accidents. Curb parking facility may be either unrestricted or restricted type. The restricted curb parking my either be controlled by police or by meters and a certain fee is collected from these who park their vehicles for a certain duration of parking time
