Off-street parking is a place to leave a car that is not on the public road — a car park, a garage, a space behind a building. Cities like this because cars sitting on the street get in the way of buses and bikes. You will see it on signs and in adverts for flats: “off-street parking” is a selling point. Though actually, off-street almost always rides along with parking; people do not often say it about other things. The pair is on-street parking: by the side of the road, on the street itself.
