The parking lot economics don't figure if you'd be building a shelter for the lot anyway. Its hardly custom engineering, theres like 3 designs I see everywhere.
In places that get heavy sun/rain, it's quite common.
I may live in a country that doesn't do this but I've never seen a parking lot with a shelter. If there is, it is used to park cars in top.
Theres a different type for cars.
Yeah we don't have many of these either here 🤷
Same back home. I am constantly thinking about how much of the cities and towns would need to be leveled to park the number of 2-wheelers I see if everyone drove cars; this tiny cafe would need 7-10,000 sqft for just the 20 bikes here now, and the parking area is half full, and then there's parking across the street.
