Hi
Anyone know the standard size of a car parking space? In other words, how big are the bays in a public car park?
I'm re designing my drive & I'd like to get a Fiesta & an Astra (both

How long is a piece of string?
I'm sure there isn't a "standard" size bay - some are hardly wide enough for a mini, others (even apart from 'disabled' bays) are wide enough to let you open doors wide on either side.
You know I think if I wanted the answer to a question like that I'd take a tape measure next time I went to Tesco. I'm going later this afternoon...
Too small, judging by the dents on my car.
Most parking bays on new developments are 4.8m by 2.4m, which is conversion from 16 feet by 8 feet.

Would that be 14.4m x 7.2m?
2.5m x 4m is recommended IIRC
3.5m x 5m is better if you can afford the space.
Its doable. Just.
Funnily enough, ended up with a couole of dinky toys at 1/48 scale, and a 1:50 plan, playing vroom vroom to see if my drive would work.
By and large, it does.
No.
Magician formulated the question :
Park them nose to tail - passenger side close to passenger side, then you will have plenty of room for the drivers to get in and out.

Think about it a bit more.

I'm thinking...OK, I give up.
In what system does 16 x 8 feet convert to 14.4m x 7.2m? (I'd make the latter 47.25 x 23.5 feet; let us in on what you're talking about.)
Multiply by the number of times 4square pressed send?

Well done that man, one balloon on a stick on it's way.
It might bounce back rejected with a spurious apostrophe attached.

According to Wokingham District Council's planning department, 2.4m x 4.8m.
