This study aims to analyze illegal parking practices in the Boemi Kedaton Mall area of Bandar Lampung from a public policy perspective. The phenomenon of illegal parking in this area arises from high economic activity, limited formal parking facilities, and increasing urban mobility. This research employs a descriptive qualitative approach using field observation and interviews with four informants, namely motorcycle taxi drivers, vehicle users, local residents, and legal parking attendants. The findings indicate that illegal parking occurs due to the imbalance between parking demand and available formal facilities, weak government supervision, and low compliance with existing regulations. In addition, these practices contribute to traffic disruption, public discomfort, and potential losses in local revenue. The study concludes that illegal parking is a complex public policy issue requiring spatial arrangement, stricter supervision, and inter-agency coordination in urban parking management.
