Chattanooga makes parking downtown easier
Posted by Charles Rash on Wed, Jun 29, 2011 @ 02:40 PM
Chattanooga is the first city in Tennessee to adopt technology made available by Parkmobile, a global company seeking to bring innovative technologies to the simple concept of paid parking.
The service, which is offered free of charge to the city, will require drivers to pay an extra 35 cent service charge for every transaction made using the technology. Parking can purchase time through a smartphone app, or by calling a toll-free number.
When a drivers' parking is set to expire, Parkmobile will send a text message alert presenting them with the chance to purchase more time. Once the time expires, a digital receipt will be emailed to customers.
