Single-Space Parking Meter

As traditionally used in the United States, the single-space parking meter is a control device installed in front of each individual parking space. The motorist must walk to the parking meter in front of the vehicle to insert either coins or Smart Cards for payment until the desired amount of time is purchased.

Multi-Space Parking Meter

The multi-space parking meter is similar in look and operation to the single-space meter but controls more than one space. Typically, each multi-space meter will control 2, 3 or 4 spaces from a single unit. The motorist must locate the appropriate parking meter, press a button selecting the space they are parked in, and insert either coins or Smart Cards for payment until the desired amount of time is purchased.

Multi Bay Parking Meter

A multi-bay parking meter is typically used to control more than 10 spaces from one unit. The units are larger in size than standard single- or multi-space meters. These units are often installed on-street to control an entire block face or in a parking lot application. In a multi-bay operation each parking space must be clearly marked and numbered. When parking a vehicle, the motorist takes note of the space number, walks to the machine, enters the space number and inserts coins, Smart Cards, or credit cards for payment until the desired amount of time is purchased.

Pay and Display Parking Meter

A pay and display meter is typically used to control more than 10 spaces from one unit. Similar in size to a multi-bay meter but different in operation, the pay and display unit requires the motorist to return to the vehicle to display proof of payment. These units are often installed on-street to control an entire block face or in a parking lot application. When using this equipment, the motorist must walk to the meter, insert coins, Smart Cards, or credit cards for payment until the desired amount of time is purchased. Once the desired time is purchased a button is pressed and a receipt will be printed. That receipt must be displayed on the dashboard of the car.

In Car Parking Meter

In car parking meter devices allow individual motorists to pay for parking by utilizing a unit displayed in the window of the vehicle. This palm-size unit provides the motorist with convenience by eliminating the need to carry coins and paying for parking curbside. The process for paying for parking is as follows: turn the device on, select appropriate zone and the amount parking time to be purchased. Upon returning to the vehicle, the unit is turned off. Payment is made by either loading the device with electronic cash or by Smart Card.

Cellular Phone Payments for Parking

With this system, cellular phones can be used for payment of parking fees. When a vehicle is parked, a sequence of entries is input to initiate payment for parking. Upon returning to the vehicle, the motorist inputs another series of entries to discontinue payment. The motorist only pays for the amount of time the vehicle was parked. Parking fees will automatically be added to the cellular phone bill.

Red Light and Speeding Cameras

Red light/speeding photo enforcement systems provide traffic safety through automated monitoring. Cameras installed at intersections and various places on roadways take pictures of vehicles running a red light or exceeding the speed limit.

Smart Cards

A Smart Card is a highly secure, digitally encoded card, similar to a credit card, which can be loaded with monetary value for payments for parking and other applications. Cards can also be loaded with information about the user for access and identification purposes.

Toll Pass and Vehicle Identification Systems

By utilizing a device that is placed in or on the vehicle and a high-speed reader, vehicle identification/toll pass systems allow motorists to drive through tollbooths or parking gates without stopping. These systems automatically recognize vehicles and collect tolls or parking fees. Toll or parking payments can be set up to be pre-paid, linked to a credit card or billed monthly.
