With the brief by operators City Park to upgrade three car parking facilities in Galway city centre, SKIDATA Ireland commissioned all sites early 2021 to ensure that customers could use the latest in cashless payment technology. Open 24/7, Galway Coach Station offers coach companies with 13 coach bays to offer services and routes and traveLlers with specially discounted parking.
When networking city centre sites from one control room it is important that the car park management system can offer the device status and reporting tools required to ensure quick fault resolution and minimal downtime.
The installation of Power.Gates on each lane enables both barcode ticket issue for short-term parking and QR code reading for contract parking ID.
Parkers using the coach services can receive discounted parking thanks to the SKIDATA sweb.Validate solution with online data transparency to the operator on usage.
With the brief of totally going cashless throughout all connected car parks, SKIDATA supplied both cashless pay stations and optional payment on the exit lane. This has reduced cash collection and maintenance costs for the operator
IP intercom is integrated to all devices to enable hands-free two-way communication with parkers if assistance is required.
