Akron Regional ITS Architecture (2022)

Parking Space Availability and Wayfinding Systems

Description

This project will install smart parking management systems in parking facilities. Smart parking management systems will include technology to monitor and manage parking spaces and provide information on available parking spaces to drivers approaching the facilities. Parking availability information and wayfinding/route guidance can be provided to drivers through dynamic signages. The information can also be provided through websites and mobile apps. Several agencies including Akron, Cuyahoga Falls and Hudson, have expressed a need for such systems.
