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..
