FASTPRK: PARKING GUIDANCE SOLUTION

On-street Parking Guidance

Parking guidance in cities is a basic part of achieving the traffic reduction objectives, which is now a priority for most of them as congestion is already chronic in many cities. One of the big challenges for Public Administration and Urban Service Managers nowadays is to reduce the congestion produced by the search for parking in order to improve mobility within the city and consequently, the environmental quality and well-being citizens.

The solution:

The solution we offer consists in equipping each parking space of the city streets or entrances and exits of a delimited parking area with wireless sensors that detect the presence of vehicles in the first case, or when they pass over in the second, to transform this data into useful parking information for the management and more efficient use of parking.

Benefits:

• Drivers are guided through the dynamic message signs and/or user mobile Apps to the areas with available spaces avoiding the circulation of vehicles in search of a free space
• The use of the different parking areas is optimized thanks to real-time information on where to find free spaces
• Information regarding the availability of parking allows users to consult the status and plan their journey based on real options
• It reduces up to 30% the traffic generated by vehicles driving around in search of a parking space
• Informing about the lack of free spaces avoids unnecessary traffic and favors the use of public transport

Park&Ride

In Park and Ride parking areas drivers may park and get to their final city destinations through softer methods, making city centers much nicer and healthier. They key to success is in a well-integrated information system giving detailed indications about the door-to-door multimodal trip. Plus, drivers must be able to easily find a place to park at de P&R areas.

The solution:

Consists in equipping their entrances and exits and reserved spaces areas with wireless sensors. The sensors detect vehicles passing over in the first case and their presence in the second, to generate useful real time parking availability information.

Park&Ride - Click to Enlarge

Benefits:

• Informing about parking availability and the alternative transportation options helps drivers decide to leave their car before entering the city
• Information regarding the availability of parking is accessible through the Internet, allowing users to consult it and plan their journey based on real time options
• Drivers are guided through the dynamic message signs and/or mobile Apps to the areas with available spaces avoiding the circulation of vehicles in search of a free space to park
• This guidance reduced significantly the urban traffic generated by vehicles driving around in search of a parking space. It means a proportional decrease in the pollution generated
• Reducing the city center chaos makes citizens more willing to travel to the center for shopping

Companies

Parking areas in large offices, factories and logistic centers can be chaotic. The difficulty for employees to find parking spaces when travelling to work affects their productivity and company loyalty. Companies seek solutions to improve accessibility and parking experience.

The solution:

We offer all the technological components required for the guidance of drives within the parking areas. Thanks to our flexible and accurate sensing system and customizable dynamic message signs, you can from now on help employees and visitors quickly find a place to park.

Shopping Areas

Parking areas in shopping malls, airports, train stations and hospitals are sometimes a great chaos. It’s really hard to find a space to park which causes a big waste of time for drivers. It generates vehicle congestion at the entrances, stress and discomforts. The difficulty of users to find a free spot to park affects their willingness to buy and their loyalty to the brand.

The solution:

The parking guidance solution equips each parking space of the entrances and exits of a parking area with wireless sensors. The sensors detect the presence or passage of vehicles, to transform this data into useful information for the management and more efficient use of the parking space.
The information collected by the system transmits the free parking options to the drivers through Variable Message Signs and/or Apps.

Trucks

Truck parking can be a source of problems in many cases. In highway’ service stations, the lack of information can result of serious availability issues and overcrowded parking areas as the drivers must respect strict driving time regulation and stop when they have to.

The solution:

Consists in equipping all parking spaces with wireless sensors. The sensors detect the presence of a truck parked and allow to inform drivers of available parking spaces and the manager about the status of his parking area.

This situation generally irritates and causes conflicts with residents, due to buses blocking roads and adding to the chaos, pollution, and noise.

 

The Solution:

The bus parking guidance solution equips bus parking spaces with sensors to guide drivers to the parking areas with available spots and avoid chaos in the city.

The Benefits:

• Drivers are guided through information panels and/or apps directly to the free spaces, avoiding the circulation of buses in search of free spaces to stop.
• Guiding buses to the free spots reduces the unnecessary traffic generated in search of parking spaces. It reduces the amount of pollution generated.
• Traffic, pollution, and chaos reduction favor the well-being of users, citizens, and neighbors.

FASTPRK: PARKING CONTROL SOLUTION

Loading and Unloading Parking

Areas reserved for Loading and Unloading operations have a key role in urban mobility. Every day a multitude of deliveries or good collections depend on the availability of a nearby parking space. In most cities, these are the areas where most parking infractions occur. The control must be ensured and efficient.

The solution:

The solution allows the service managers to be remotely alerted of possible offences such as time exceed or unauthorized parking.

Loading and Unloading Areas - Click to Enlarge

The benefits:

• The identification and control of the users parked in each parking space achieves a drastic infraction reduction in the loading and unloading area
• The control of the maximum authorized time respect increases the rotations in the area
• The information provided to the users together with a greater parking availability eases and speeds up finding a free space for loading or unloading
• The real-time visualization of the alerts allows the optimization of the control operations as well as the resources destined to this management
• The reduction of infractions and compliance with regulations reduces the number of vehicles double parked
• The authorized users have real time information about where to find an available place

 

 

People with Reduced Mobility (PRM)

Spaces reserved for People with Reduced Mobility play a key role in the mobility of these people. These are parking spaces with some characteristics that facilitate their mobility, such as the minimum dimensions to handle their chairs, or proximity to pedestrian accesses and entrances to buildings to avoid long distances.

The solution:

These spaces are only authorized to people who have the European Union parking card for people with disabilities. With our solution you can guide users directly to the available spaces and at the same time remotely alert the services in charge of surveillance when unauthorized parking violation occur.

• The control of authorized users frees up the spaces used fraudulently and offers more possibilities to park to those who really need it
• Authorized users have real-time information on where to find and available space
• The real-time visualization of the alerts allows the optimization of the control operations as well as the resources destined to this management, being able to prioritize the areas with more infractions

 

Free Limited Time

Offering citizens a parking policy based on short time for free parking is in this case a very attractive option for public administrations. The challenges of each choice do not lie so much on the possibility of implementing the rules, but on controlling it. The administration enforcement capacity is the key for such a policy. Success in controlling the respect of the maximum established time will be the key to the users respect of it.

The solution:

Urbiotica’s solution for the control of on-street free parking allows the service managers and local police to be remotely alerted of time exceeded sessions and thus only intervene to fine offending users.

Free Limited Space - Click to Enlarge

Benefits:

• A win-win approach for citizens, merchants and city manager thanks to the natural respect of the policy as users know the control is automatized and systematic
• The real-time visualization of the alerts allows the optimization of the control operations as well as the resources destined to this management, being able to prioritize the areas with more infractions
• The control of the maximum authorized time respect 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, pollution and the city attractiveness
• The citizens benefit from a free and efficient service as they have access to real time information about where to find an available space

 

Pay-by-space

Most of the on-street parking enforcement operations are carried out systematically, street by street and without any previous knowledge of any possible fraud incurred by users. It remains as one of the last urban service with such a lack of efficiency. The challenge for city managers and parking operators lies on the capacity of improving and optimizing the service by the means of implementing technology.

The solution:

The pay-by-space model using single space detection parking sensors offers many benefits regarding the traditional service. It brings efficiency to the control as well as real time information for the users related to parking space availability. Urbiotica’ solution allows the service managers and local police to be remotely alerted in case of payment default or time exceeded sessions.

Electric Vehicles

Electric vehicles (EVs) are a key component in sustainable mobility, unlike the combustion engine which is one of the most direct causes of pollution generated in today’s cities. For this reason, it is becoming increasingly common to find parking spaces reserved for electric vehicles which are equipped with recharging facilities. However, it is common for them to be occupied by unauthorized vehicles, complicating charging access for the EVs that need it.

The Fastprk Parking Control Electric Vehicles Solution:

With this solution, you will be able to guide drivers directly to the available spaces, and at the same time, remotely alert the services in charge of vigilance when an infraction occurs and an unauthorized user parks.
