Fastprk: Control of Free and Limited On-Street Parking Time
Offering citizens a parking policy based on free, but time-limited parking is an attractive option for public administrations in small and medium-sized cities since paid parking is a headache and often loss-making.
The solution allows the service managers and local police to be remotely alerted of time exceeded sessions and thus only intervene to fine offending users.
Benefits:
- The real-time visualization of the alerts allows the optimization of control operations as well as the resources destined to this management.
- The control of the maximum authorized time increases the rotations in the area and therefore impacts favorably on the space availability.
- The permanent space availability allows people to reduce their time looking for parking, with a great and positive impact on traffic congestion and pollution.
- The citizens benefit from a free and efficient service as they have access to real-time information about where to find an available space.
The solution includes:
- U-Spot sensors installed in each parking spot.
- APP for users through which they check-in once they parked and may consult parking availability.
- ParkCtrl: APP for a quick and efficient enforcement.
- U-Admin web platform to manage the system
- API to integrate with any third party system
How does it work?
- The user parks of a free and limited time parking spot. The U-Spot sensor detects the presence of the new vehicle.
- The user checks-in through the parking APP to notify he parked precising the number of the spot.
- If the user doesn’t check-in or in case the maximum time defined is exceeded, an alert is sent to the parking guard.
- If the vehicle is removed, or if the alert is dealt with by the guard, it disappears.
- From U-Admin the manager can configure and monitor all system activity.
