Introducción al proyecto (Project Introduction)
PARCS is an initiative to replace aging parking equipment in 22 city-owned facilities with modern technology. PARCS is a combination of equipment and software that runs a parking facility, such as ticket machines, gate arms, payment machines and camera systems. The new system will be a significant operational upgrade from our existing 16-year old equipment. New software and hardware will:
- Improve operations and customer service
- Replace signage & reviewing traffic flow / operation procedures
- Make parking easier and more efficient for customers
- Reduce fraud and handle cases of missing or lost tickets using license plate recognition technology
- Improve auditing and credit card security to protect customers
- Improve safety for high pedestrian safety areas with flashing light and audible alarm as vehicles exit facilities
- Enable real-time data collection, which helps with the implementation of dynamic pricing and universal validation to create a more efficient parking experience for customers
