Resident and authorized parking areas are designed to offer free, time-limited parking spaces exclusively to vehicles belonging to local residents and other authorized users. This ensures preferential access and prevents unauthorized parking.
Municipal regulations govern these zones, typically setting a maximum parking duration ranging from 4 to 48 hours depending on the locality. Generally, authorized vehicles must meet criteria such as being registered as residents, paying local circulation taxes, or holding a special resident or authorization permit.
📲 Digitalization and smart control of resident parking areas
Parkunload enables full digitalization of the regulation and control of exclusive or preferential parking spaces for residents and authorized users, replacing traditional methods such as parking discs or physical resident permits.
The Parkunload mobile app allows users to:
- Digitally register the start and end of their parking session.
- Automatically verify that the vehicle is authorized to park in the area.
- Efficiently and transparently manage municipal or commercial authorizations.
- Receive notifications and alerts about remaining parking time.
⏱️ Time limits to encourage turnover
Although resident parking spaces are generally free, parking is time-limited to promote turnover and ensure availability for all authorized users. The maximum allowed parking time is configured according to local regulations and can be checked directly within the app.
