Baltimore is applying smart parking and city mobility through collaboration with ParkMobile. As part of a city-wide initiative, the ParkMobile app will be available for drivers to reserve transient parking at off-street locations around the city. It will also be available for on-demand parking across 11,000 on-street parking spaces throughout Baltimore’s Central Business District.

Owned by Swedish firm EasyPark AB, ParkMobile is available in cities across Maryland, as well as surrounding metros such as Washington, DC.

Baltimore drivers can reserve parking via the ParkMobile app or on the dedicated site for the City of Baltimore parking reservations website. To make a parking reservation, users can search for the event venue in the ParkMobile app or web browser, then select the lot where they would like to park. After the reservation is booked, it can be redeemed at the location using a mobile pass in the ParkMobile app.

“ParkMobile is proud to partner with the City of Baltimore to enhance the parking experience for residents and visitors,” said David Holler, vice president of sales at ParkMobile. “As the trusted parking and mobility platform for over 700 cities across North America, our mission is to create more liveable urban environments by simplifying the parking process. In Baltimore, our smart parking platform will streamline parking operations, improve traffic flow and provide a seamless, stress-free parking experience.”

“We are excited to partner with ParkMobile as our new off-street parking reservation system vendor and as one of our mobile payment options at parking meters,” said Peter Little, Executive Director of the Parking Authority of Baltimore City. “Baltimore residents and visitors will enjoy these new digital payment options that will give them more time to enjoy Baltimore instead of waiting to pay the parking meter.”
