Not giving new properties parking demonstrably works in reducing car use.
The harder you make it to own and park a car the more likely people are to use alternative transport.
Some will park on neighbouring streets, but this will make it harder for the people living there to have cars so they might decide to use the bus.
It doesn’t matter how good public transport and cycling / walking infrastructure is, if it’s easy to drive people will drive. Google Stevenage, it has amazing cycling provision that no one uses because the roads are too good.
