“We are proud that we were the first in Budapest to introduce the smart parking experience to our citizens and visitors. Since the start of the system’s public operation in Sept 2019 the number of those who actively use the Parker application is continuously increasing, resulting in the improvement of parking statistics: the occupancy rate has increased and become territorially more balanced. Parking place-level statistics turned out to be extremely useful when it comes to the design of operation processes and other parking related concepts.”
