The Problem

The problem councils face

Parking is one of the most visible daily issues in every municipality — and one of the hardest to manage with limited real-time data.

Drivers circling and creating congestion

Drivers can't find a spot quickly and end up circling streets, adding to traffic congestion and frustration across the municipality.

Overstays and rule violations hard to track

Without real-time data, overstays and parking rule violations are difficult to monitor consistently, leading to poor compliance.

Enforcement relies on manual checks

Manual patrols and time-consuming processes make routine enforcement slow, expensive, and inconsistent across precincts.

High dispute volume

Unclear proof, timing gaps, and inconsistent records create a high volume of disputes that drain resources and erode public trust.

Limited visibility into demand

Councils lack real-time insight into demand hotspots, turnover patterns, and occupancy trends needed for planning and operations.

Revenue leakage from poor compliance

Unmanaged overtime and weak compliance mean revenue leaks every day from undetected overstays and unmonitored zones.

Carparkly turns parking into a controlled, trackable system — where bookings, compliance, and enforcement are connected.

FAQ

Questions? Answered

Can we control dynamic pricing by zone and time?

Yes. Councils can configure dynamic pricing by precinct, day, and time windows (e.g., peak hours, event pricing), including caps where needed.

How does overtime work?

Overtime can be detected automatically and handled using your council-defined settings (grace periods, overtime rates, escalation rules). A full record is retained for transparency.

Can authorised officers issue tickets/fines directly from the platform?

Yes — where enabled. Authorised roles can issue tickets/fines in-app, supported by booking validation, time logs, and case tracking for resolution.

Can violations be resolved inside the app?

Yes. The platform supports a workflow for review, messaging, and resolution, including paid/unpaid tracking where applicable.

Do we need new equipment or hardware?

Carparkly can run without new hardware. Councils can optionally add signage or local operational steps depending on the pilot zone.

Can we run paid and free parking together?

Yes. Councils can run paid and free zones side-by-side with different rules, restrictions, and enforcement settings.

Can we assign different managers to different precincts?

Yes. The Assign Manager system supports zone-based permissions so each team controls only what they're responsible for.

What reporting can we export for governance and audit?

Precinct-level occupancy, turnover, overtime and compliance events, enforcement actions, and operational logs can be exported for reporting.
