Abstract :In this paper, parking lots and pedestrian way effects on the queue length and emissions in the new campus of Adana Science and Technology University were investigated. Three different parking capacities were compared as 15, 10 and no parking lots. Microsimulation software called VISSIM was used to evaluate parking lots and pedestrian way effects. Queue length and vehicular emissions are two main parameters that were analyzed. The simulation results showed that emission values decrease as queue length values decrease. In addition, according to simulation results when 10 parking lots are allowed instead of 15, queue length has decreased as 6,815%, and emissions insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(such as CO, NOx); have decreased as 3,86%. If no parking is allowed instead of 10 parking lots, queue length has decreased as 86,63%, and emissions have decreased as 54,29%.
