[All CIMAPRO19-P03-1 Questions]

Smalltown had a problem with people parking cars on the town's mam shopping streets instead of in the nearby car parks The parked cars created congestion and made it difficult for delivery vehicles to unload Smalltown's local government had employed traffic wardens to enforce parking regulations by issuing parking fines to motorists who parked for more than the permitted 30 minutes.

The local government took further action to deal with this problem It banned parking on the busiest streets, it introduced parking charges in the remaining streets and it made it free to park m the town's car parks for up to two hours Fewer people now park cars on the streets because of the charges, but those who do generate significant revenues for the local government Fewer traffic wardens are required and so wage costs have reduced

The local goverment auditors have decided to carry out a value for money audit of the parking system

Which of the following is a measure of effectiveness?

Increased revenues? That sounds like a prime example of the government finding new and creative ways to tax the people. I wonder if they're going to use that money to improve the town or just line their own pockets.

Haha, I bet the local government is loving all that sweet, sweet parking revenue. Maybe they'll use it to build a solid gold statue of the mayor or something.

Reducing enforcement costs is great, but it doesn't necessarily mean the system is more effective. The revenues have increased, so it seems the new policies are working as intended.

Decreased stress for traffic wardens is a nice side effect, but not really a measure of effectiveness. The real goal was to manage the parking situation, not make the wardens' lives easier.

The main shopping streets being less congested is definitely a measure of effectiveness. The whole point was to reduce traffic and improve access for businesses and customers.

I think option D, revenues from parking have increased, is also a key factor to consider in evaluating the effectiveness of the parking system.
