Smart parking pulls in to Parramatta

Parking in Parramatta is now faster and stress-free, with the introduction of smart parking technology at Parramatta City Council’s three major car parks.

Parramatta Station, Justice Precinct and Eat Street car park stations now have number plate recognition, ticketless parking, real-time parking guidance, upgraded lighting and CCTV.

Lord Mayor, Martin Zaiter said the upgrades were about providing a better customer experience.

“Ticketless parking means no more paper jams, tickets being inserted incorrectly and wasted time locating the ticket and, even worse, the stress of losing it,” Lord Mayor Zaiter said.

“Like Parramatta Square and PAC car parks, Licence Plate Recognition technology reads each vehicle’s number plate on entry and exit, records the time of stay and calculates the parking fee.

“This is just another part of Council’s Customer Experience Transformation Plan designed to create a consistent and seamless customer experience across every channel, including accessing our car parks.”

Additionally, electric vehicle chargers have been installed at Parramatta Station car park as more commuters switch to EV vehicles.
