What is a tandem parking space?

Two spaces one behind the other, where the back car can leave only if the front one moves. How to record tandem spaces in Parken Lot.

A tandem parking space is two spaces laid out one behind the other, so the car at the back can only get out if the car in front moves. Because of that, a tandem pair is usually assigned to one household rather than to two strangers.

What to decide

  • Who holds the pair: one unit for both spaces, or two people who have agreed to share.
  • The price: the same as two ordinary spaces, or less, since neither can be used freely.
  • What happens when the front car blocks the back one, and who is called.

In Parken Lot

You can tag a space as Tandem, alongside tags such as EV, covered and accessible, so anybody looking at the lot can see it.

Each space is still its own record, with its own permit and its own price. Parken Lot does not link the two spaces of a pair or know which car is blocking which. If your rule is that one household holds both, assign both spaces to the same occupant.
