Valencia City Council is expanding its smart parking project, initiating the second phase of its collaboration with Pavapark. The new phase will build upon the initial project implemented by Urbiotica, adding sensors to 2000 new parking spaces.

The second phase will integrate Urbiotica’s Smart Parking platform with the city’s Smart City platform, VLCi. The integration will gather data from all installed sensors and provide functionalities such as analytics and management of regulated parking spaces.

The project deployment has been structured in two phases. In the initial stage, M2M sensors have been installed in parking spaces. This prioritised those designated for persons with reduced mobility (PMR) and loading/unloading zones (CyD).

In the second phase, an additional 2,000 M2M sensors will be added. This will expand coverage while maintaining efficiency and accessibility.

The project aims to optimise management of public spaces, reduce traffic, pollution and noise, and improve accessibility, especially for drivers with reduced mobility and access to loading bays.

Integrating Urbiotica’s Smart Parking platform with the city’s Smart City platform VLCi will provide functionalities such as analytics and the management of regulated spaces. The analytics functions will help provide detailed data on parking space usage to support more informed decision-making.
