The underground parking lot located in the center of Riga, near Kongresu nams (transl. House of Congress), offers residents and guests of the city the opportunity to park their cars every day. The parking lot boasts 327 car spaces in total.
To streamline the parking process and provide greater convenience to customers, Riga’s municipality public transportation company “Rīgas satiksme” has installed Hansab solution Entringo. This technology not only makes it easier to use the parking service but also offers seamless payment options.
How does the solution work?
Vehicle number plate recognition cameras are installed at the entrance and exit of the underground parking lot, ensuring that parking payment control is maintained. If the customer has made the payment, the barrier opens, allowing the car to exit the parking lot. There are three self-service payment kiosks at this location, which are situated at the main glass-domed exits to the Kongresu nams.
In the “Rīgas satiksme” parking lot Entringo:
• automatically processes license plate information
• ensures access to the parking lot (entrance/exit)
• offers payment options at the three self-service terminals
• improves visitor experience (they need to pay for parking - technology takes care of the rest)
Moreover, an automated parking lot creates a sustainable company image by eliminating the need for paper tickets for the parking lot service.
