Just a tap of their phone and motorists can easily find and rent a privately-owned carpark or search for a charging station convenient to them, via the real-time data in the Park’nPay app.
With 100,000s of under-utilised driveways and car spaces sitting idle, commuters and local residents can now easily make use of these otherwise wasted spaces – significantly easing parking congestion and saving drivers from circling the block.
The Park’nPay app, already supported by the NRMA, has partnered with Chargefox and parking marketplace Parkhound to provide a single seamless platform for drivers looking to plan their trips.
The Parkhound feature can be used by drivers to find the perfect spot when street parking isn’t available, while giving hosts the chance to make some extra cash when their car spots would otherwise sit empty.
Minister for Digital and Customer Service, Victor Dominello, said these new partnerships took the customer experience to the next level.
“This is a smart solution for a smart State,” Mr Dominello said.
“Alongside the real-time parking availability, money saving pay-as-you-go technology and remote topping-up facility, having all this information accessible in the one place is a big win for the drivers of NSW.”
