I'm final year student of Civil Engineering and now doing my final year project entitle "Parking Facility at BV Building at UNITEN as an alternative parking facility for COE Student". The purpose of my project is to promote BV parking as an alternative parking for COE students. Seems like the COE parking always congested with many particular vehicle so BV parking can be as an optional parking besides at COE parking.
what can i say here, from my obeservation, not much students park their ride at there..just in between 4-5 cars only daily except for friday and weekend..why people doesn't want park there??
One of my FYP methods besides campaign, I need to do the travel time method.. Basically, this method need to measure in term of distances, times and steps taken from BV parking to BN, BM and FOODCOURT.. Seems like the reading for male and female are definitely are not same, so I decide to make it in separately reading.. I ask my friends for help while doing this method..Consequently, it's absolutely got the different reading for both gender..
I do it in 3 ways :
1) Using roads way
2) Using pedestrian walk
3) Using shortcut way
The data is as below:
1) Data for using the roads

Legend:
M = male F= female
So you guys can look this data to be your refference. What can I conclude here, the max distance taken for each gender is only lesser than 700 meter, for time taken is less that 7 minutes and the steps is less than 700 steps.. You just try to imagine, if you walk more faster, use shortcut ways, tend to take the much much lesser of distances, times and steps!rite!!
So then, let's choose BV as an alternative parking!it will bring for our own good..
Sorry for being so long not to update this blog..I'm quite busy lately with my other task and preparation for my campaign..For this post, i wanna share some overview at BV parking since tis campaign had started about 2 weeks ago..I had go to BV parking almost everyday on the morning to see how the environment at BV parking..Are'nt there have any car park there?Or just an empty parking as usual?
What can I conclude here for this 2 weeks duration, eventhough there are not much car park at there, there's definitely had a car whichpark at there even just one..But only on Friday, there are no car park at there and I understand why this situation happened. I believe many of us will not have class on Friday so this matter tend to make parking at COE is suffficient to be park and no congestion occurs. However I'm so glad because for being choosen BV parking as optional parking besides COE..
Because of that, I wanna share some pictures that had I've taken randomly at BV parking..
I mostly appreciate for being park at BV parking and also being support on my campaign..Really hope to get your continues support.. Thank you very much..
The campaign is already began and i believe all of you had noticed that..this campaign is a part of my methodology that i need to implement in this final year project 2..So for this post, i wanna to explain again about my campaign..
As we know, parking at COE is always full, congested especially early in the morning and during peak hour..so i suggest if there are no empty parking at COE, come and let's park at BV parking..why not??i'm seriously wanna to tell you that is not too far with BN,BM & foodcourt..i had already counted the distance and record the time from BV to this 3 buildings by myself..i don't lie to you..the maximum distance that had i counted is less that 700 meter and max time is between 6-7 minutes..but you try imagine that if you walk more faster, using shortcuts way, definitely the lesser time and distance that you will take. again, i'm not lying to you...
However, i didn't mean that we cannot park at COE parking..Please don't get me wrong..but just in case, if parking at COE is already full occupied and congestion occur, i encourage all of us to park at BV..because BV parking also can be as an alternative parking instead of COE parking..i hope you guys understand what had i mean it..
i believe all off us had received an email regarding the COE PARKING CAMPAIGN..i hope all of us will take it as a seriously campaign that i try to point out it for our own good..so here i attach once again the email..
"Dear students,
COE PARKING CAMPAIGN..
Are you tired of searching for parking at BM or BN each time you have class there?
Well, there is a SIMPLE yet effective solution to this MATTER.
There is one hidden parking that almost all of us had already heard and went, but
because of lack of classes there, this parking was always left empty.
Yes, you got it right! It’s the BV PARKING.
ADVANTAGES OF THIS PARKING
1.Accommodate up to 84 cars
2.Strategic (near with BN,BM & FOODCOURT)
There would be a series of campaign to promote BV Parking as an alternative parking during this semester. The campaign will focus on gathering as much as student to park at BV parking. Thus, it will reduce the congested traffic at BM and BN parking especially during peak hour. We hope that all of the students support this campaign.
