German term or phrase: Motorisierung
(translation of whole sentence would be great)
Da, mit Ausnahme der reduzierung des Parkraumangebotes am Standort Velberstraße, gemäß Angaben des Stadtplanungsamtes keine Maßnahmen zur Verringerung des Parkraumangebotes geplant sind und neben dem allgemeinen Anstieg der Motorisierung keine z.B. obektbezogenen Nachfrageveränderungen abzusehen sind, stellt der ermittelte Parkraumbedarf den gesamten Nachfrageüberhang des Parkbedarfs im Untersuchungsraum dar.

English translation:car ownership
Explanation:
literally: people equipped with motors (yes, it's more than one now).

The City Planning Authority has declared that, with the exeption of a reduction in parking space on the Velber Street site, no reductions in parking availability are intended. Therefore, and because we do not foresee any other changes in this matter, aside from an increase in car ownership, the calculated demand for parking space represents the entire additional demand for the analyzed area.


Something like this. It will take some more fiddling.
