Parking Requirements

Durham has above-average transit for a Research Triangle city — GoDurham bus network plus GoTriangle regional bus service plus Triangle Transit (limited rail). Durham's walkable inner-ring neighborhoods (Trinity Park, Watts-Hillandale, Old West Durham, Northgate) are compact and bikeable. Duke University's campus generates significant non-auto mobility. Research Triangle commuters often use GoTriangle express buses. Durham's parking minimums have been reduced in recent UDO updates reflecting transit investment.
