Harrogate Smart Parking Case Study

In Harrogate, Nwave’s solutions partner AppyParking worked with two local authorities, Harrogate Borough Council (HBC) and North Yorkshire County Council (NYCC), with a shared goal to improve the parking experiences for local residents, businesses and visitors.

Our smart parking technology was selected to make parking easier and less stressful for Harrogate drivers as well as more efficient for local authorities. Gone are the days when city centre visitors had to circle around until they find a free space. Instead, a special app enables them to drive to the nearest available spot without wasting time and fuel.

Our smart parking solution provides access to real-time availability information before drivers even set off on their journey. The Secure Driver Identification(SDI) technology provides a fast and safe way of authenticating the motorists as they park and enables one-click payments for their stays. The parking session ends automatically when the vehicle drives away.
